Cameo Carvings
Most gem-quality materials are cut and polished as cabochons or faceted into fine jewelry gemstones, while very few gem-quality materials are reserved for natural gem carvings. Gemstone carvings are a rarity as they require a lot of quality material and much of it is lost during the carving process. In most cases, gem cutters do not complete the project with small little 1 carat masterpieces, but instead, the finished product often weighs hundreds of carats, or in some cases, several hundred pounds or kilograms.

Natural gemstone carvings are exceptionally rare, and the carved result of a cameo, ornament or animal is so much more unique than an ordinary traditional gemstone shape. Many cutters specialize in carving certain animals or statuettes, such as the fine jadeite carving experts - many of the best jade carver artisans hail from Asia, including China and Thailand. Other specialize in cameo carvings which focus on the silhouette or shape outline of a person's head, usually someone notable such as that of a monk or priest. Cameos were especially popular during the days of mourning jewelry.
