Anna e Alex cameos are esteemed artistic jewels handmade by the craftsmen of the eminent Torre del Greco tradition, rare master interpreters of the ancient cameo art. Interested in the creative blend of design and tradition, the artists re-interpreted this antique technique in an original way, preserving the purity and natural elegance of the style. This hand-carved cameo is made according to the ancient process of Sardonyx shell carving, which employs a two-layered surface of different colors to allow the carved figure to emerge from the bottom in positive relief. A time-honored and totally unique talisman featuring a regal antlered stag, symbolic of strength and sweetness, energy and longevity. Many supernatural virtues related to well-being and physical purity have been attributed to the deer since ancient times. The magical properties of its body, due to the renewal of its horns periodically, much like the trees, are associated with the idea of life that is rejuvenated and reborn. Sterling silver adjustable closing on slip-knot cord, adorned with two pearls. Water resistant. One size fits most. Cameo measures 0.7” in diameter.
