Vintage Jewelry ITALY Micro Mosaic Teal Double Floral Pin Brooch

Circa 1970s Maker's Mark: ITALY Dimensions: Approx. 3.5 x 2.5 cm (Photos may be enlarged; please refer to dimensions) Materials: Plated Metal, Tesserae (Tiles) Functional and in good condition. The smaller the tesserae used in 1970s Italian micro mosaic jewelry, the higher the price. This is due to the difficulty in handling and preserving such tiny pieces, as well as the meticulous selection required to create beautiful color palettes and designs. Micro mosaic craftsmanship was initially used for church decorations and furniture embellishments, with only the nobility commissioning jewelry pieces to signify their status. Italian micro mosaic jewelry of this kind was a regionally popular style, found only in specific areas. These pieces typically lack brand names, bearing only the country of origin and material. The inclusion of the country of origin often indicates an export item or a "souvenir," so for people of that era, wearing such a "souvenir" was also a way to display wealth! This is a piece of antique Western jewelry, not a new modern replica. All photos are of the actual item. Condition details have been shown as much as possible in the photos, with close-ups highlighting any flaws or signs of wear.
