The horse is shown in profile, with the muzzle elegantly turned to the right, an intense yet serene gaze, and ears upright, expressing pride and nobility. **Particularly fascinating is the long, wavy mane**, composed of soft locks finely incised that descend along the neck and end in elegant ornamental curls. The precision in the modeling of the muzzle, eyes, and the waves of the mane gives depth, movement, and realism to the figure. The ivory white of the engraving stands out from the natural brown tones of the sardonica shell, creating a refined chromatic contrast that enhances the subject’s three-dimensionality. Every detail is completely handmade, making this cameo a small unique and unrepeatable work of art. ### MOUNTING IN 925 RHODIUM-PLATED SILVER The cameo is enhanced by a distinctive **artistic wire mounting in 925 rhodium-plated silver**, characterized by sinuous lines that gently follow the natural shape of the shell. The open and asymmetrical structure embraces the horse’s profile, highlighting the splendid mane and the depth of the engraving. Small silver attachment points complete the mounting, creating an elegant balance between artisanal tradition and contemporary design. The pendant features a **polished upper loop in 925 rhodium-plated silver** and is accompanied by a refined **chain with small decorative spherical elements**, which adds brightness and lightness to the composition. ### FEATURES - Type: women’s necklace with artisanal cameo - Cameo: natural sardonica shell - Subject: horse head with a wavy mane - Engraving: entirely handmade - Craft: Italian artisanal, Torre del Greco - Mounting: Rhodium-plated 925 silver - Finish: silvered shiny - Design: artistic wire mounting, open and sinuous - Chain: fine link with decorative spherical elements - Necklace length: about 45 cm - Pendant dimensions: about 30 × 20 mm, including the loop - Total weight: about 7 g - Cameo color: ivory white on natural brown background - Conditions: new, never worn - Made in Italy ### SYMBOLIC MEANING OF THE HORSE The horse has always been considered a powerful symbol of **freedom, strength, courage, nobility, and determination**.
