Have you ever held a cameo in your hand and felt the finely-carved lines with your finger?

If so, you understand that each and every cameo is a miniature work of art. Whether carved in carnelian shell or the rare sardonyx shell, mother-of-pearl or agate, cameos have an exquisite classic beauty that has held the attention of generations. And cameos make memorable gifts: they're great for graduation, Mothers' Day, Valentines day or your wedding anniversary.

At The Cameo Collection, we sell some of the finest cameos in the world. Imported from the tiny town of Torre del Greco, Italy — which is, to this day, the center of cameo carving in the world — our cameos come directly from master carver Gennaro Borriello, who himself employs fifty trained artisans. This relationship ensures that each hand-carved cameo we sell has been produced by artists whose hands understand the shells they carve and the timeless beauty they create.
