Our finer mosaics seem to keep going back to Italy, and surely are destined to turn up there at 3 times the price as your next souvenir offering in Rome or Florence - why not get them here and let the extra cash pay for your trip! This one is huge, and has the tiniest early 1800s tesserae in a magnificently detailed bouquet of spring to summer flowers. A fine and substantial 15K gold mount on this stunning 1820-40s micromosaic plaque makes it a brooch you can wear or frame, literally, as fine art. The plaque is without a single flaw, truly - amazing! The tesserae on this are truly tiny - sand sized almost. Fabulous colors in one of the most popular themes, the early florals. None finer!
Very good to excellent and not a single flaw to note. Clasp these old brooches over your pearls, ladies as an enhancer - it's a fabulous way to show them all off (pearls and brooches), and updates them a bit to today's fashion if you're just (like me) NOT a brooch person. Isn't this one stunning!
