This 1940s cameo is stunning! The carving is exquisite, the colors of the natural shell are perfect, and the mounting is subtle and yet rich, with a sparkling diamond, small details, and polished gold, simply exquisite!
Cameo is the art of carving a layered material, creating a portrait or landscape with differences in colors. While traditionally done in shell, banded onyx has been used in cameo work - particularly in Greece and Italy - for hundreds, if not thousands, of years.
