Antique shell cameo depicting Ariadne, finely carved in high relief and shown in classical profile, draped in flowing garments and holding a staff, with a sheepskin tied at her waist. The figure is rendered with exceptional detail, from the delicately modeled facial features to the intricately carved hair adorned with floral elements.
Set in a 9k white gold mount, the oval cameo is framed by a simple bezel that allows the craftsmanship of the carving to take center stage. A fine example of classical revival jewelry, rich in mythological symbolism and artistic quality.
