"Two antique 19th century carved Cameo shells featuring sillhouettes of a man and woman. The woman is adorned with grapes and leaves, while the soldier holds a spear and wears a figural galea helmet with wings and serpent mohawk.
The most popular cameos today are carved in sea shells, a tradition that began in the fifteenth or sixteenth century and was popularized by Queen Victoria of England.
