Decided to try what I've been wanting to make and challenged myself. -My first attempt on a cameo.
I've been dreading this moment and now I understand why most cameos got a Greek-style profile. (damn that nose bridge, I slipped, actually. >.< -Not too bad for a first try though. )
This amber cameo is carved in reverse and less than an inch tall. The strand of hair closest to her jaw line is about 0.5 mm wide. Eyelashes were drawn with a needle-tip burr.
Carved with miniature burrs in a thin slice of cabochon-cut natural Baltic amber piece.
