Vivien Leigh
Ah, the timeless cameo. It fits any era. And especially fitting for your Gone with the Wind character role.
Ancient & Roman Eras, Artisans carved hardstones (like onyx or agate) and glass to create intricate signet rings, political portraits, and mythological scenes. The Renaissance period had a massive revival of cameo art, where European nobility collected hand-carved gems as status symbols. Victorian (1837-1901), Queen Victoria’s love for cameos made them immensely popular. Art Deco (1920s – 1930s), The style shifted dramatically from classical, romantic profiles to geometric, modernist settings and hardstones. Mid-Century Vintage (1940s – 1960s): Italian shell cameos dominated this period, often set in simple, clean yellow-gold mounts. Many of the vintage clip-on and screw-back cameo earrings found on the market today date to this post-war era.
1970s – Present: The introduction of plastics and molded resins made cameos widely accessible as costume jewelry. Modern carvers continue to create fine jewelry using historical and mythical motifs
Hand made.
