Surely you’ll find the exact shell cameo you’re seeking on 1stDibs — we’ve got a vast assortment for sale. Frequently made of gold, yellow gold and 18k gold, this item was constructed with great care. In our selection of items, you can find a vintage example as well as a contemporary version. Finding the perfect shell cameo may mean sifting through those created during different time periods — you can find an early version that dates to the 18th Century and a newer variation that were made as recently as the 21st Century. A shell cameo from AMEDEO, Cameo Italiano - Diluca S.R.L and Artisan NYC — each of whom created a beautiful version of this treasured accessory — is worth considering. While most can agree that any shell cameo from our collection can easily elevate most outfits, but the choice of a diamond version from the 195 available is guaranteed to add a special touch to your ensemble.
