Cameos have cast their romantic spell over people’s imaginations for thousands of years. To bring you this wearable art, we went to the heart of cameo carving artistry in the world–– Torre Del Greco–– and found a group of artisans that blend techniques developed in Naples during the 18th century with the classic Neapolitan tradition of cameo carving of Torre del Greco. The Cuore Rosa Cameo Pendant is the stunning result.
Cameos have depicted everything from real life portraits of royalty to mythological and historical symbols. The rose in this heart-shaped pendant is an iconic representation of romance and love and exhibits the type of remarkable detail you would expect from a master craftsman. Surrounded by intricate filigree metalwork, this piece is the very definition of romance. Comes suspended on an 18" gold-finished sterling silver chain.
