Future projections in fashion lean towards vintage looks as well as animal cameo brooches..The sales from the bengaltiger55 store at ebay bear this out.

Animal cameos are rapidly overtaking the floral traditional look. Butterfly cameo brooches are very popular with both young and mature people.

Future cameos will definately include horses and dogs as these are the favorites of very young cameo jewelry buyers , especially young ladies in the 12 to 30 age group .

Figural cameo brooches as well as floral bouquet brooches are most often given as gifts by men.

Cameo color also shows differences by age and gender.

Men usually choose blue backed cameos , young ladies mostly choose pink , orange and green cameo brooches.
