VINTAGE CERAMIC CAMEO GOLD HOOP SINGLE EARRING
GOLD
MADE TO ORDER
Wear these versatile earrings in your own way — style them as part of an eclectic mix, as a single statement piece, as a classic matching pair, or as ‘non-identical twins’ by pairing different vintage Wedgwood cameos from our Oval Ring collection. Any of the small cameos can be set in this style.
Each cameo is mounted in a bespoke solid gold setting, suspended from a lightweight Yellow Gold Creole Hoop. The hoop opens with an integral hinge and closes securely to form a complete circle.
These vintage Wedgwood cameos, produced in Stoke-on-Trent between the 1950s and 1980s, are among the last of their kind — timeless pieces of British ceramic history. Hand-made and kiln-fired, their slight irregularities make each cameo unique. Every cameo is skillfully adjusted to fit the setting.
The earrings are lost-wax cast, polished, and set by a single master craftsperson in London, before being hallmarked in Hatton Garden.
Any cameo from our Oval Split Ring Vintage Ceramic collection can also be mounted in this style — please email customerenquiries@ferian.co.uk for details.
Please note: Earrings are sold individually.
As each piece is bespoke and made to order, please allow 2–4 weeks for delivery. Earrings are non-returnable unless faulty.

Ferian's designer Leonie Branston has a special interest in preserving and reframing British crafts so they can be enjoyed and appreciated by a contemporary audience. At Ferian we are particularly drawn to the vintage Wedgwood cameos dating from the 1950s-80s featuring heraldry, nature and nautical motifs for use in our jewellery.
Abolitionist, potter, entrepreneur, Josiah Wedgwood revolutionised ceramics. His pioneering spirit transformed a cottage industry into an art form, and his legacy is internationally renowned today. Founded in the 1770s the elegant designs were influenced by classicism, but his pottery though decorative was functional, durable and made to be enjoyed and used by generations. The signature fine matt porcelain — known as Jasperware, was developed after over 10,000 experiments. Many unique colours were created; Dark blue, Portland blue, Lilac and Sage green, but by far the most famous is the Pale blue, a tone recognisable around the world today. The patterned bas-relief motifs were delicately applied by hand then kiln fired.
The Stoke-on-Trent pottery is now a museum, owned by the Victoria and Albert Museum.
