Spring Suite--Cameo Flowers

I love cameos...they have a timeless, old world elegance. They are versatile and can be used in a variety of designs.
Traditionally, cameos were carved out of gemstones like onyx or agate. These days we get cameos in a wide range of materials like glass, shell or even resin.


Cameo Flower Pendant



Look at this lovely, red rose cameo.
It it made of resin. The detailing is meticulous and life like.


I did not want anything to detract from the beauty of the cameo, so this is set very simply on a gold base.















Swarovski Earrings



Pair it up with these lovely swarovski dangle earrings and you have a set that is an instant classic.
