Cameo Jewelry
From
The Collectors Index



Cameo jewelry has been popular for ages, made from shell, lava rock, hard stone and all most any material. Intricate hand carved with fine detail being the most desirable of almost any natural material. Settings have less value than the cameo they hold. The carvers patience and workmanship was the final single most important factor, with some value being placed on the subject of the carving on the Cameo. The hand carved from the past are much more valuable than the laser carved of the present.
