Antique Micromosaic Pendant

An antique 19th century micromosaic depicting the Veduta della Gran Piazza e Basilica forms the centerpiece of this pendant, framed by finely crafted gold triads along a slender bezel. Micromosaics, composed of innumerable tiny pieces of colored glass, were masterfully arranged to capture intricate architectural and landscape scenes, admired for both their precision and their beauty. Once prized by travelers of the Grand Tour, these miniature works of art are now cherished for their rarity. Handcrafted in rich gold and finished with a hinged bale that clips easily to a necklace, this pendant is a distinctive jewel of exceptional artistry.
