On offer is a beautiful Italian micro mosaic picture frame, decorated with hundreds of tiny hand set glass tesserae forming delicate floral garlands in shades of cobalt blue, pale blue, white and yellow. The elegant shaped frame is finished with its original brass easel back, making it ideal for tabletop display while showcasing the remarkable precision of traditional micromosaic craftsmanship.

Micro mosaic work became one of Italy’s most celebrated decorative arts during the 19th century, particularly in Rome, where skilled artisans created intricate designs using tiny pieces of coloured glass. These decorative frames remained popular well into the 20th century as quality souvenirs and collectables. This example is in very good condition with no missing tesserae and only light age related wear to the metalwork. It retains its original brass easel stand and is ready to display a treasured photograph.
