US size 6 According to Lang University: Micromosaics are created from tiny fragments of tesserae, generally made from glass or enamel, set to form small pictures. One common method includes melting glass, pulling it into thin rods or threads and then, after it cools, cutting it into tiny pieces that are then arranged on a copper or gold tray to create a scene, portrait or landscape. Many depict ancient Italian landmarks or scenes from nature such as animals or plants.
