Description:
This rectangular cameo carved from layered stone depicts a stylized woman's head in classic profile. The face is calmly and clearly sculpted, with softly flowing contours and an elegant, timeless appeal. The hair is styled in broad, sweeping lines and blends harmoniously into the surrounding layers, creating a fluid overall composition.

The natural layering of the stone is deliberately utilized: the light relief stands out clearly against the pink to violet background layers, lending the image depth and a three-dimensional effect. The rectangular shape reinforces the modern, graphic effect of this cameo and creates a striking contrast to the classical motifs.

The artist Jürgen Reinhardt's signature on the reverse confirms its craftsmanship and artistic origin. Due to its size and clean lines, this cameo is ideally suited as a striking piece of jewelry – for example, a pendant or brooch – as well as a high-quality collector's item of contemporary glyptics.
