Popular in 19th Century Italy, micromosaics were constructed from small pieces of tesserae, typically made from glass or enamel. One method of creation involved melting the glass, pulling it to thin rods, allowing it to cool, then cutting it into tiny pieces arranged in a portrait, scene, or landscape. This pair of earrings on black background exemplify the technique used in revivalist jewelry.
