A passionate man hand-carved a likeness of his beloved from a shell found in the sea, symbolizing her extraordinary beauty and their enduring love, a testament to his lifelong admiration. In 1957, the Michele di Luca family sought to pass down this craft of shell carving, embodying romantic love, through generations. They dedicated themselves to creating exquisite handmade art pieces from seashells, which have since become treasured by collectors worldwide. In 2012, the Michele di Luca family established the fashion brand, Cameo Italiano, perfectly interpreting the art of cameo carving as fine jewelry under a distinct brand identity. Utilizing shells from the emperor conch as their creative element, they meticulously cut and hand-draw and carve each piece. Centered around European romanticism and classic motifs, they developed diverse collections. Within just two years of their launch, they achieved 500 points of sale in Italy and garnered immense acclaim from enthusiasts of European handmade jewelry. In 2014, the Michele di Luca family began their global expansion, eager to share the beautiful love story born in the Bay of Naples with consumers worldwide who appreciate European design aesthetics.
