Small antique Italian micro mosaic brooch, probably early 20th century, set in a brass or brass-toned metal frame with turquoise-coloured glass cabochons around the border.
The centre has a detailed floral micro mosaic design with white flowers, coloured floral accents, green foliage, and a turquoise border. The outer frame has raised rope-style gilt decoration and a domed form, giving the brooch more presence than many flat souvenir micro mosaic pieces.
The reverse has an early pin fitting and aged gilt metal surface with natural patina.

Measurements
Diameter: 1.75 cm / 0.69 inches
Weight: 3.5 grams

Condition: Very good antique condition. Light surface wear and patina to the gilt metal, consistent with age. The micro mosaic decoration is well preserved.
