Porcelain cameo earrings featuring the head of the Gorgon Medusa.

The design consists of detailed porcelain cameos set in sterling silver mountings. The silver elements feature a twisted hoop motif and an integrated Medusa relief, creating a unified classical composition.

The cameos are crafted from Parian porcelain finished with a deep cobalt glaze. Parian porcelain, originally developed in the mid-19th century to mimic the fine white marble of the island of Paros, provides a refined base for the rich, high-contrast cobalt finish, echoing the aesthetic of classical antiquity.

Cameo Dimensions: 24 × 25 mm. Total Height: Approximately 40 mm. Weight: Approximately 5 g per earring.

Materials: Sterling silver, Parian porcelain, cobalt glaze.
