Our vintage shell cameo arises from a jewelry tradition with remarkably deep roots. Carved gems can be traced to ancient Sumer and Egypt nearly five thousand years ago, while the cameo as we recognize it flourished with the Greeks and later the Romans. Centuries of revivals, especially during the Victorian era, have shown just how enduring and endlessly wearable the cameo can be.
This vintage shell cameo is paired with rich carnelian gemstone beads, bringing warm color and a little drama to its classical profile. The result feels romantic, confident, and surprisingly easy to style.
A piece of ancient jewelry tradition, reimagined for now.
Vintage. Bold. Timeless.
- gold-filled paperclip chain, clasp and wire. The chain is adjustable from 16-18"
