The Cameo Ring

Cameos have been popular throughout history but were especially fashionable during the Victorian era. A cameo ring is made by inserting a carved cameo into a simple hoop. Queen Victoria was a big fan of Cameos, and Cameo rings carved with her portrait were given to guests at her wedding to Prince Albert.

Here are a few gorgeous examples…
