    I don't see any markings at all so maybe costume jewelry?? But isn't it just a beautiful little piece?? DB10255D-D03A-4209-A02A-5E0D0772B923.jpeg E0BCA157-FAC4-4F73-B215-BD934BBC5B78.jpeg FB238680-2D4E-4012-9846-E9935D2A353F.jpeg

    Looks like a little glass mosaic brooch. Often called micro mosaics but the older ones are the real micro mosaics, yours is more modern.

    Here’s a victorian micro mosaic set in gold and more modern costume mosaic one like yours.

    Once upon a time someone went to Italy and bought a pretty little souvenir.

    Oh I love it!! It is very similar . Yes, it's very small. 1.5" x 1". My husband said there's a mark.. we just can't get it clear enough

    Try a magnifier app with a camera. I have one it's great for closeups

    It probably says ITALY. Yup, 50s or 60s mosaic brooch. I'm very fond of them.
