French term

en ronde bosse

French to English Art/Literary Metallurgy / Casting Argent estampé
Hello,
I am not sure how to render "en ronde bosse" in this context. This is a description of cufflinks depicting the face of a well-known advertising icon.
There's not much context, but here it is:

Matière : Argent 925 / 1000 - poids estimé à 8gr
Traitement : Argent estampé en ronde bosse
Fixation : pivotants en Y
Tirage : 100 exemplaires ;

Thanks in advance for your help.

En ronde-bosse = en relief.
I would say "sterling (stamping) cameo"
