Micro Mosaic Pieces For Beauty And Repair For Sale
I acquired these beautiful pieces at an estate sale here in the Seattle area recently. Each has their own need of repair but are such works of art, nevertheless, that I wanted to save them from the junk drawer. This lot includes:1) A beautiful micro mosaic brooch of birds in a birdbath. Unfortunately the black background glass (or stone) has a crack at the base of the picture and a tiny chip in the upper right hand area of the brooch. The surround appears to be silver. There is a word or name etched on the back in the silver but I cannot determine what it says. This brooch is an oval measuring 1 7/8" across. 2) One of the pins (measuring 1" in diameter) has a superb flower arrangement (red, pink & yellow with forget-me-nots around them). I don't think there are any pieces missing, however the clasp for the pin, on the back is broken. There is wording etched in the back "Made in Italy." 3) A tiny darker piece (5/8" diameter) looks pretty intact but if it is an clip earring, there is only one. If it is a hat clip it may just need some cleaning. 4) The 6 sided brooch ("Italy" on the back) measures 7/8" across and seems to be in good condition. In the right light the glass sparkles. 5) The little frame is a later piece that still has its "Nordstrom Made in Italy" tag on the back. It measures 1 3/4 x 2 1/8 and has a micro mosaic surround of tiny flowers. Please let me know if you have questions or need more pictures of any of these items. The winner will pay with PayPal and add $3 for mailing within the USA or $8 to Canada. Check with me for cost to other countries.
