Description: The Item Price Is FIRM.Micromosaic Earrings Italy Grand Tour For your consideration are these beautiful Italian micromosaic earrings featuring Roman Ruins. I have added two 14K gold filled hooks and two antique textured accent beads with 14K gold filled wire so these lovely antiques can be enjoyed today. There are no cracks in the black glass. The micromosaic earrings measure roughly 20 mm diameter. Earring length is 42 mm. There is minimal to no tesserae loss I can detect (the little handmade glass tile pieces). Please examine and zoom all photos carefully for condition and details. A brief history of micro mosaic jewelry: Micro mosaic jewelry became popular during the European Grand Tour period (17th-19th Century). Members of wealthy families would travel around Europe taking in the sights and cultures of several different countries. Italy was a very popular tourist spot as it had a long and prestigious history in arts and culture - a favorite subject in aristocratic circles. It was also a famous glass producer, and Italian craftsmen quickly turned their glass making skills to making stunning miniature micro mosaic pictures for their rich visitors. Flowers, birds and architecture were a very popular subjects. Each piece of tesserae (little hand-pulled glass tiles) was hand cut by the artist and painstakingly set in place. No two micro mosaic pieces are the same. You are buying a little piece of history that is truly a one of a kind.
