Elegant, graceful, and full of character — this 20th century Salmon coral cameo is a fine example of antique coral carving at its most accomplished. Crafted from genuine, natural, undyed Salmon coral, the cameo displays the warm, luminous blush tones that are the hallmark of authentic Salmon coral — a colour entirely the gift of nature, untouched by dye or treatment.
At 40 × 18 mm and 6.7 grams, this is a generously sized cameo with real presence — substantial enough to make a statement as a pendant or brooch centrepiece, yet refined enough to wear with everyday elegance. The delicately rendered relief portrait speaks to the skill and patience of the artisan who created it. Please note: there is a small crack on the back side of the cameo — please refer to the photographs for full detail. The front face is in excellent condition and the crack does not affect the visual beauty of the piece; it is consistent with the age of the cameo and is reflected in the pricing. Sourced from a European private collection and authenticated by our 3rd generation antique specialists at Kingdom of Antique Arts, Vienna.
A rare 20th century Salmon coral cameo — a collector's piece of exceptional beauty and character.
