One of a kind. When it sells, it is gone.
Free US shipping over $50. 30 day returns.
This is the exact cameo featured in my Confessions Series (Part 2).
If you recognized it… this is that piece.
This 16x12mm hand-carved shell cameo is cut in a distinctive octagon shape, featuring a classic lady profile with subtle floral detail at the shoulder—a detail you don’t see on every carving.
The lines are soft and balanced, with a natural flow through the hair and neckline, set against a warm carnelian-toned background that gives it that timeless, vintage feel.
This one stands out quietly.
✔ Genuine shell cameo (not resin)
✔ Hand-carved with floral accent detail
✔ Unique 16x12mm octagon shape
✔ Warm orange / ivory contrast
A true collectible piece — exactly as shown in the series.
Only one available — once it’s claimed, it’s gone.
