Large Hand Carved Shell Cameo In 14K Yellow Gold Frame

Step into a world of classical elegance with this exquisite and impressively sized cameo. Dating to the late 1800s, this heirloom-worthy creation is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of a bygone era.

This meticulously carved shell cameo showcases an ethereal depiction of Venus, the goddess of love, arms outstretched, walking through a flourishing garden.

The sleek and elegant frame allows the intricate details of the carving to shine, measuring 3.5 inches in height and 2.75 inches in width. This substantial size not only enhances the visual impact of the piece but also makes it versatile in its wearability.

This masterfully crafted creation serves a dual purpose, functioning both as a pendant and a brooch.
