Antique Micromosaic 'Spaniel' Pendant

This 19th-century micromosaic features a finely rendered spaniel, each tiny piece of glass arranged with precision to form a richly detailed scene. The image is framed by a narrow gold bezel adorned with four sets of elegant gold detailing and completed with a slender hinged bale. Once prized as souvenirs of the Grand Tour, micromosaics like this celebrated the artistry and sophistication of 18th- and 19th-century European craftsmanship. Elizabeth Locke transforms these miniature works of art into jewels to be worn and enjoyed, giving them new life for the modern collector.
