These silver stud earrings with cameo are handmade by artisans in Torre del Greco, Naples. This manual craftsmanship makes every cameo a unique and authentic jewel.
The cameo is a relief made on stone or, as in this case, on shell. Its symbolic meaning changes according to different historical eras. Even the ancient Romans developed the art of engraving on stones. In more recent times, the Cameo was used above all by wealthy families, who had family portraits engraved on it.
