Years ago, before I found all the antique cameos I work with today, I came across a German artist who carved cameos in agate stone. I loved his work and collected quite a few to use in my own work. Although I only have antique cameos on the website at the moment, over the years, customers who visit us at art shows or in the studio have selected some of these blue agate beauties for custom pieces. I recently binged the last season of Bridgerton so of course was thrilled one of my collectors selected this blue agate cameo for me to create a slide pendant for her. The cameo is so large, we decided to do a simple hand-carved texture frame rather than distract from the piece itself. Cameos radiate timeless elegance, and whisper stories of the past. They are symbols of grace and tranquility. Blue agate cameos specifically are treasured for their soothing qualities and are believed to bring peace, balance and uplift the spirit.
