These cameos are habille’ cameos. “Habille’” is a French word. (Habille’is prounounced (ah-bee-yeh) inFrench ) Paired with theword, “cameo”, it means a dressed cameo, or a cameo wearing jewelry. Also, note that the term “cameo habille’” refers toa cameo actually adorned with detachable jewelry such as a sterling silver collar with adiamond pendant.
