On offer is a large Italian carved shell cameo brooch dating from the 1930s to the 1950s, beautifully set in a rolled gold mount. The finely carved shell cameo depicts a classical female profile with flowing curls and an ornate headdress, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship for which Italian cameo carvers have long been celebrated. Italy has been the centre of shell cameo production for centuries, with hand carved examples remaining highly collectable.

The cameo is housed in its original presentation box, labelled as a genuine Italian hand carved cameo. The rolled gold mount features an attractive scalloped border that complements the finely detailed carving. Measuring approximately 2.5 inches by 2 inches, the brooch remains in good vintage condition with no cracks or chips to the shell, light age related wear to the mount, and a secure pin and clasp.

A fine example of an Italian carved shell cameo brooch that combines traditional craftsmanship with timeless elegance.
