Bespoke Commissions
CARVE WHAT YOU LOVE INTO A CAMEO
A face you never want to forget. A companion who never left your side. A symbol that means only something to you. Commission a one-of-a-kind cameo, carved by hand — yours alone, forever.
PORTRAITS OF THE PEOPLE — AND THE ONES — YOU CARRY
Since 1857, my family has carved cameos in Torre del Greco. For six generations we have turned shell into memory. A bespoke AMEDEO cameo is the most personal thing we make: your loved one, your child, your dog, your emblem — sculpted by hand from a single shell, so it can never be repeated.
"I carve what the world is afraid to forget."
— Amedeo Scognamiglio
WHAT WE CARVE
PORTRAITS OF LOVED ONES
From a single photograph, a face carved to last generations.
BELOVED COMPANIONS
Your dog, your cat, your horse — the ones who never leave your side.
SPECIAL DESIGNS
A crest, a symbol, an initial, a private meaning — imagined with you.
HOW A COMMISSION COMES TO LIFE
01
THE CONVERSATION
Share your photograph or idea. We talk through the subject, the stone, the metal, and how you'll wear it.
02
THE DESIGN
We prepare a sketch for your approval. Nothing is carved until the likeness feels exactly right.
03
THE CARVING
By hand, from a single shell, over several weeks. We update you at each stage, so you witness it take form.
04
YOURS, FOREVER
Set in gold and delivered — a single piece that exists nowhere else in the world.
Every commission is made to order and carved entirely by hand. Allow four to six weeks from approved design. Each piece is one of one — signed by the house of AMEDEO.
