A perfect addition to a collection or a gift to that special someone. ∆ Maker: Dante The Museum Masterpiece collection of men's jewelry reaches across two thousand years to recreate the ancient art of cameo carving. These are authentic Incolay stones - exact reproductions of original carvings in our Masterpiece Collection selected from the museums of the Mediterranean where Greek and Roman artisans flourished from 400 B.C. to 300 A.D.. The first cameos, carved only for the well-to-do, depicted gods and goddesses of Greek mythology. It took many years and the fall of Greece to the Romans before cameo portraits became a realistic form of art in great demand. Cameo carving attained its greatest popularity during the reign of Augustus Caesar with engravers using multiple layers of colored onyx to carve elaborate protrayals of heroic scenes, rulers, gods and historical events. The fine, detailed carving of ancient cameos was an art virtually forgotten until the Incolay process was developed. The Incolay stone is a combination of minerals and chemicals and the result of many years of of research and development. Unlike ancient onyx cameos, it will not chip or crack and can be cleaned with any jewelry compound. The Incolay stone re-creates the priceless cameos now housed in museums throughout the world. Each carving will bring a lifetime of enjoyment for collections and recollections ∆ Material: Cameo, Gold plated metal ∆ Size: see photo ∆ Weight: Medium ∆ Condition: In good vintage pre-owned condition. ∆ Lovely patina!
