Vintage Pre-Loved 9ct Yellow Gold Shell Cameo Ring - Size J

Some pieces just have a quiet confidence about them, and this cameo is one of them.

Carved in soft blush shell against a warm sunset ground, she's shown in classic profile with curled, swept-up hair and the softest detail at the shoulder. The oval cameo sits in a polished 9ct yellow gold bezel, wrapped in a double rope twist border that catches the light beautifully.

Underneath, elegant split shoulders lift the cameo and give it a lovely, graceful line on the finger. It's the kind of ring that looks just as right with a cashmere jumper as it does with a little black dress.

A pre-loved vintage piece with character, ready for its next chapter. Perfect as a gift, a treat to yourself, or a first step into collecting cameos.

Can the ring be resized?
