    “Mosaic jewelry” likely refers to a type of adornment called micromosaic jewelry. This art form, micromosaics, is the miniaturized offspring of a type of decoration used to embellish buildings as far back as 2500 BC. During the late 18th century and much of the 19th century, travel to continental Europe, especially Italy, was the capstone of one’s cultural education and conferred social status (the travelers were typically English men, and this is referred to as the era of the Grand Tours). Often accompanied by retinues of retainers on journeys lasting months or years, the elite travelers required artful personal mementos befitting the experience. Tourists resided near Rome’s Spanish Steps, and vendors sold small ready-made compositions and took commissions for custom works. After making a purchase, patrons took their mini masterpieces, which were rarely not more than two inches wide and composed of enameled-glass tesserae, to jewelers or artists to have them set in jewelry. Find a selection of micromosaic jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022

  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023
    To date micro mosaic jewelry, examine the hardware. This style of jewelry first became popular during the 19th century (Italian artist Giacomo Raffaelli, founder of the School of Mosaics in Milan, in 1806, is said to have been the first to incorporate micro mosaics into jewelry). Over time, the types of hardware used in the creation of these accessories changed considerably. For example, brooches from the late 19th and early 20th centuries will often have a “C” clasp, while safety pin-style fasteners became popular in the 1920s. A certified appraiser or experienced antiques dealer can help you determine the age of a given piece based on the fasteners and clasps on your jewelry. Shop an assortment of micro mosaic jewelry on 1stDibs.
