There are objects in this world that are not merely worn — they are experienced. This 1950s Italian micromosaic brooch, alive with hand-assembled red poppies, white blooms and golden flowers against a sage green ground, meets a 1980s gold-plated basket-weave choker in a redesign that feels both timeless and boldly modern.
Micromosaic is one of the most painstaking crafts in decorative art history — each tiny tessera placed by hand to create a picture of breathtaking intricacy, originating in 18th-century Rome and increasingly rare to find today.
