Vintouch Italy

Women's Metallic Plated Mini Cameo & Pearl Necklace

Giving us waves of romanticism, mixing and matching cameos and pearls is an always-returning trend that Vintouch have revisited through the use of sustainable and ethically-sourced raw materials. Crafted in Italy from 18-karat gold-plated silver, this necklace is delicately strung with pink baroque pearls and a dainty handmade porcelain cameo charm. Try layering it with a choker made in the same materials. Entirely handcrafted in our own workshops in the town of Torre del Greco, Italy, the mini cameo & pearl necklace is hand-carved from a special, exquisite type of porcelain that is called biscuit - also known as 'jasperware', made of the same mineral oxides of the antique cameos carved by Greeks and Romans back to III century B. C. The manufacturing process of our cameos requires high craftsmanship skills and extreme precision: with the aid of a very fine chisel called bulino we bring up the lines of the designs and enhance the harmony of the reliefs, before the cameos are fired up at very high temperatures in order to be finally set in precious metals. Vintouch Cameo Jewelry pieces are extremely resistant and they don’t need any particular attention. By the way, we suggest to avoid to make the cameo jewelry piece in contact with soaps, cosmetics, detergents and chlorine, that could alterate the natural characteristics of the jewel. When it is not worn, keep your cameo jewelry piece in its bag in order to protect it from natural oxidation. Only if necessary, use a suede cloth and delicately clean the surface of the Jewel. Each one of our jewel is nichel-free and realized in full compliance with the Reach/Rohs directives from UE.
