    FAP FABBRICA ANGELO Pessar
    Fabbrica Angelo Pessar was famous for his micro mosaic pieces. He made them for tourists to Italy during the Victorian and Edwardian periods. His work is collectible and more rare. Micro mosaic is the art form of using very small cut pieces of glass and millefiori cane to create intricate designs, like the floral and geometric pattern in this brooch.
