This unique signet ring features a swooping swift 'cameo' (a motif that’s been sculpted in low relief with a contrasting colour background) and has been handcrafted and painted by us, Cit Ma Bon Bottega in our studio on Lake Constance in Southern Germany.
Sculpted from the highest quality clay and hand-painted with a creamy, pale blue textured background, the precious ivory-colored swift in flight sits delicately on top.
The cameo has been sealed with two sumptuous layers of resin that not only increase durability but also ensure this little beauty shines when worn. The cameo is set onto an adjustable, hammered gold-plated, artisanal brass ring band, handcrafted by an independent European studio.
We offer FREE SHIPPING ✈️ on all our items within Europe so that there are no 'shipping cost surprises' at checkout and a flat rate of 5€ everywhere else in the world.
The clay cameo measures 1.5 cm. The width of the ring band measures 1cm. The adjustable band’s inner diameter measures 1.5 cm and expands to 1.8 cm.
This special ring comes mounted on a beautiful hand-printed Cit Ma Bon Bottega gift card.
Treat with care, clean the clay cameo area with warm soapy cotton wool and avoid immersing in water.
Cameos were first used during the Egyptian times as a document seal that represented royal authority and identity. The cameo was further perfected by Roman artisans who carved portraits and mythological scenes, using materials like sardonyx, onyx, and glass paste.
