A pair of hand-carved shell cameo pendants in sterling silver frames, each depicting a classical female profile in delicate relief — pale portrait emerging in soft contrast against natural blush and ivory tones. The oval cameo presents a serene profile with gathered hair and smooth classical neckline, echoing the Greco-Roman portraiture that defined the Victorian cameo revival. The round cameo features a more sculptural profile with softly detailed curls, its circular form giving the portrait a medallion-like quality reminiscent of antique classical reliefs. Both mounted in sterling silver that frames without overpowering. Traditionally associated with the Italian cameo carving tradition, where classical motifs and hand-engraving techniques have been practised for centuries.
