Vintage Italian Leaf Shaped Micromosaic Pin

Description

Vintage Italian leaf-shaped pin with detailed micromosaic made of tiny colorful glass tiles set in a floral pattern.  The art of micromosaics can be traced back to ancient Roman times, and small micromosaic souvenirs were popular during the Grand Tour period and continue to be collected today.

Condition is very good with all tiles intact and a nice aged patina to the twisted brass surround and back.

Dimensions: 2” wide x 1” tall
