Vintage Italian Hand Carved Shell Cameo Pendant Gold Tone Signed

This vintage pendant features a genuine hand-carved shell cameo dating from the 1950-1960 mid-century era. The cameo depicts a classical lady's profile with softly carved facial features, flowing hair, and natural shell colour variation in warm peach and cream tones.

The cameo is set in an elegant gold-tone floral frame, typical of mid-century Italian and American jewellery design. The pressed floral detailing and folded prong setting reflect the manufacturing techniques used during the 1950s-1960s. The pendant bail is secure and allows the piece to be worn on a variety of chains or ribbons.

A charming and feminine vintage piece suited to collectors of cameo jewellery or anyone who appreciates mid-century craftsmanship.
