What is the Cameo Made From? by: Tina
Hi Sarah the profile of a ladies face is one of the most popular cameo subjects. Classic old Cameos often have scenes of classical history, carved in the form of classical mythology.
The clasp on the back, looks like it's a C type clasp which is the earliest type of clasp. Can you tell what the cameo material is? Is it made from shell? The color of the material is very pale, compared to shell, which usually has a coral or peachy tone. Tina
