Originating in Alexandria, Egypt in 300 BC, cameos have been used throughout the years as status symbols, charms of desire, and teaching tools. They were coveted, collected and popularized by the likes of Napoleon, Queen Victoria and Pope Paul II. One look at this necklace and it's easy to see why cameos garner so much adoration.
Handcrafted in the traditional pink shell by skilled artisans at Esemco -- a Newark, NJ jewelry company known for their high quality and fine craftsmaship -- this miniature work of art features a ghostly carving of a lovely lady in profile set against an peachy pink background.
Cameo is set in a 10k white gold filigree lacework pendant, which we feel adds an air of romance and timeless elegance.
Pendant comes on a new 10k chain. Truly a beautiful piece.
