Circa 1870, 18k, French. Featuring St. Peter's Square, this particularly exceptional micro mosaic pin features a heavy, finely detailed 18kt gold frame. An earlier example, the scene of St. Peter's Square in the Vatican is realistically depicted using extra small tesserae for superb detail. The goldwork is French and art Italian. An important part of the archeological revival movement, micro mosaic jewelry sits at a crossroads. Brilliantly combining fashion, fine art, and decorative arts, the result is a lasting legacy of unique pieces. Excellent condition.
