Ocarat is proud to present its curated selection of cameo jewelry from our partner brands. Each piece has been carefully handpicked by our experts to offer you quality designs - crafted from premium materials - that will exceed your every expectation.
The Cameo is a jewelry piece with ancient origins stretching back centuries, all the way to ancient Greece and Rome. These pieces were originally used as official seals, pressed into wax to close and authenticate important documents. When adopted by the era's nobility, they took on an artistic dimension, as prominent figures chose to have their own portraits carved into these small creations.
Many kings and queens of old also embraced the cameo, and it was customary for them to gift beautifully crafted examples - decorated with their own likeness - to members of their inner circle.
Cameos rose to prominence during the Victorian era, more specifically during the second half of the 19th century.
Often carved from a block of coral, lava stone, natural shell, or a gemstone such as agate, the most traditional designs depict the busts of gods, goddesses, heroes, or iconic historical figures.
This mythical quality makes it an accessory that embodies a privileged social status - one that can be worn equally by women and men. Some even credit this unisex jewelry piece with genuine good-luck powers!
At its core, the cameo is a true miniature work of art - steeped in history and a testament to ancient craftsmanship and expertise. Available in various sizes, cameo jewelry can today be worn as a ring, a necklace, a pendant, a bracelet, a brooch, or an elegant pair of drop earrings.
Once confined to the world of antique jewelry collectors, this quintessentially vintage, retro piece is back in fashion - refreshed for a modern audience. In the 21st century, it's been reimagined with delicate details that give it an offbeat style perfectly at home in your everyday wardrobe. Paired with a white top, the effect is simply stunning.
As you might expect, while the most classic cameos are crafted in 750/1000 yellow gold (18 karats) or 375/1000 yellow gold (9 karats), many modern variations embrace 925 silver, gold-plated metal, gold-tone metal, or resin for a more accessible price point or a more contemporary look.
When it comes to background colors, the options are endless! From a bold deep green to the more common shades of orange and navy blue, with understated variations in black and brown in between - there's no shortage of choice. In other words, there's a very good chance you'll find, among all these cameos, a design rich in detail in your favorite color.
