THE MEANING BEHIND Cameo

"Each face is a reminder of the feminine force that lives within us, untamed and enduring. She’s not one thing: she’s wild and wise, ancient and becoming." ~ Hannah
VIEW COLLECTION

18.4ct Fossilized opal Cameo necklace.

18k yellow gold chain, lobster clasp, cameo head, barnacles, and mast of ship. Bright silver bail, jump ring, and sail.

Pendant measures approx. 37.72 x 26.7mm.

Chain measures 18" in length, including the clasp.

All metal has a matte finish.

Opals can form as pseudomorphs, replacing organic material and preserving its original shape as a fossil. Under the right conditions, opal develops within cavities left by wood buried in sand or clay, creating a detailed replica of the lost material. The result is a stone that retains the texture and form of wood- often resembling pieces of driftwood. Despite its organic form, the rough stone still has opal's beloved kaleidoscopic colors.
Origins: Lightning Ridge, NSW Australia
MOHs Hardness: 5.5-6.5
Care: All opals are fragile like glass: be extra careful to avoid abrasive surfaces, and avoid knocking your opal against hard surfaces. Extreme temperature shifts can cause cracks. To keep your opal clean, use warm water with mild soap and a soft toothbrush or cloth. Do not use a steam cleaner or ultrasonic cleaner.

ANATOMY OF CAMEO

A modern interpretation of antique cameo jewelry, these pieces reflect the strength, intuition, and layered identity of the Divine Feminine. Rooted in history yet distinctly contemporary, each design honors storytelling, connection, and self-expression.

Designed as rings, necklaces, and earrings, the collection redefines cameo jewelry through tranquil, sculptural forms. These unique designs move beyond tradition, offering modern jewelry that is both timeless and expressive. Our cameos honor the sacred wildness, mystery, and enduring resilience of the feminine.

Named after Nantucket’s coastal fog, our Grey Lady pieces evoke the same mystery and introspection. Fierce, independent, wild, and wise, her spirit moves throughout history and is bound to us with the shared thread of sisterhood.

Carved in solid silver and 18k gold, these handcrafted pieces are designed for durability and everyday wear- unique, non-traditional jewelry and alternative wedding bands that feel both strong and refined.
