Blue Cameo ring and earrings for a Woman
What is a cameo and specifically what is a blue agate cameo?
Blue cameos are the right combination of the ancient art of carving and the need for modernity that a woman, nowadays more and more “on the run,” has in being always elegant and at the same time informal. It is no coincidence that your blue cameo ring or earring can be worn during a business meeting or an out-of-town trip, with a fancy dress at the theater or with jeans and a casual white shirt during a reunion with friends.
Silver blue cameo rings have the great ability to be adjustable to your finger solving the long-standing and frequent problem of larger knuckles on your finger and allowing your jewelry to fit perfectly on your hand. Blue cameo rings in gold, on the other hand, are brought to size according to the directions you give us when ordering.
Are cameo rings worth anything?
The value of cameo rings can vary greatly depending on the quality of the cameo, the material from which it is made, and the age and condition of the ring. Handmade cameos made from fine materials, such as those you find at Eredi Jovon, can have significant value, especially if they are vintage or antique pieces.
How to tell if a cameo ring is real?
An authentic hand-engraved cameo will show subtle variations in the detail and depth of engraving. Check the back of the cameo for any signs of handwork and observe the mount: a valuable cameo will be set in a precious metal such as gold or silver. If you have doubts about the authenticity of a cameo, we recommend that you consult an antique jewelry expert or a trusted gemologist.
The blue cameo lobe earring goes well with your ponytail during days at the office, the pendant jewel will be your excellent companion to your loose hair during a Saturday off from work or during a relaxed lunch with your friends.

The Material we use for Blue Cameos and the carving we create
The blue cameos are done starting from a double layer agate stone (that can be dark blue, red or green). The white part is engraved to reach the blue layer that lays beneath.
Cameo is in fact a kind of sculpture using the chromatic differences between the layers of that agate stone. The due of an artist is to set this sculpture free, the due of an artist is to make this piece of art came alive.
What is Blue Agate
Agate is a variety of chalcedony quartz characterized by multicolored banding. Formed within volcanic and metamorphic rocks, it exhibits translucent layers and offers natural protective, balancing, and soothing metaphysical qualities.
Agate cameo stones come from safe, traceable and environmentally sustainable sources in compliance with laws against child labor and exploitation of economic resources and nature.
Each cameo is a unique piece, hand-carved by master craftsmen. The hues of the blue agate, the portrait details, and the silver or gold setting make each Eredi Jovon piece of jewelry a one-of-a-kind work of art.
