A girl's cameo made of traditional material used for ancient glyptics due to a unique white-red layered patterning.The nature of the work and the rare, difficult-to-process material require a lot of patience and a lot of time, as Josef Drahoňovský himself recalls. Handicraft glyptics have been a prized craft in history, and quality genre motifs have often been repeated or repeatedly embedded in new, more modern jewelry.
