Cammeo2022

Cammeos have a rich history originating back to Egypt in 15,000 BC where petroglyphs were carved into the rock to record events. The Cammeo (or Cameo) is a jewel made through engraving stratified stone or shell. Collectors appreciate the rare art of Cammeo sculpting, which craftsmen techniques have been handed down for generations in Torre del Greco a Naples, Italy. Inspired by the age-old tradition of fine craftsmen and carvers; every detail of Cammeo Playing Cards has been thoughtfully drawn and painstakingly created. The backs have intertwining rings and hourglasses documenting the passage of time and dedication it takes to engrave the intricate facial features and individual curls surrounding the beautiful Cameo faces. Every card has been spectacularly overhauled with actual Cammeo artists' artwork used for the faces.
