Our NCL bus tour guide took us here before we toured Pompeii. We toured the Cellini Gallery first…read more In 1960 The Cellini Gallery was born, a small artisan reality, situated in Pompeii, near the Archeological Are. As the years went by the small studio grew more and more, 'till it became a leader in the sector of Coral and Cameo-Making. The Cameos are handmade engraved shells that, thanks to their stratified structure, allow to vary the levels of appearance. The coral is used both as a precious stone and in the creation of artistic and ornamental objects. There are two manufacturing sectors: the "smooth" and the "lithography". We did not purchase any cameos or coral jewelry. Most of the cameo and coral jewelry started at 100 euros. More to come regarding our tour of the ancient Pompeii ruins, which is why we mainly toured here.
