History: The word chinoiserie /ʃɪnˈwɑːzəri/ comes from the French term Chinois which translates as Chinese or, after the Chinese taste (as in style). Chinoiseries means a Western or, European interpretation of an Asian style and may not an necessarily be of an actual Asian design. Painted Bird has an array of garments we consider 'chinoiserie' from a number of Asian countries but for purposes of website search - we offer as one collection. We believe they are all beautiful, unique and wearable art for the now. Fashion designers have repeated these designs over a variety of eras. Enjoy!

Oh Cameo Earrings

$80.00

Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

Step into timeless elegance with these black and white cameo earrings, where vintage sophistication meets modern allure. Each earring features a finely carved, ghostly white profile set against a rich black background—a nod to the classic cameo design that has enchanted jewellery enthusiasts for centuries.

Perfect for both casual outings and formal occasions, these earrings add an air of grace and history to any ensemble. Light enough for everyday wear yet eye-catching enough to garner attention, they are the perfect blend of old-world charm and contemporary style.

Cameos are the epitome of antique adornments, known for their intricately raised reliefs crafted from stone, shell, plastic or even molded glass. Dating back to Ancient Rome, cameos often depict mythological figures or elegant women in profile. While shell cameos gained popularity during the Victorian era, earlier versions were carved from stones such as agate or sardonyx, highlighting stunning white portraits against dark backgrounds.
