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.

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.
