While inspired by the intaglio, the cameos creates the opposite effect – instead of the main focus being sunken, the image is raised.
Modern cameos are carved into layered agates, dyed to create strong color contrasts.
Hartley Brown in Gallery #50 has a number of charming modern cameos.
Such as:
Hardstone Cameo Pendant / Brooch by Filippo Tignani
Amazing Hardstone Portrait Cameo by Luigi Rosi in Gold Brooch Frame
Hardstone Cameo Brooch and Earrings Set in Gold and Pearls
Hartley Brown invites you to visit Gallery #50 where you’ll find carved stones, intaglios, rare certified gemstones, antique, and period jewelry.
