It’s not difficult to find cameo earring, cameo brooch, cameo pendants, cameo charms … in jewelry stores and handcraft shops. This kind of jewelry also fashion girls common jewelry items in her jewelry box.  A cameo is a small scene of nature, or figure which has been carved in relief. The word cameo specifically describes a relief image which is raised higher than its background and which has been carved from only one material. Cameos can be made in any material, even plastic, but the most popular ones are those made from stone, coral, shell, glass, resin and fine metals. Sometimes cameos are carved from hard stone, but more often they are made from substitutes such as conch shells, and pieces of Wedgwood porcelain china.
