<p>[QUOTE="DanaB, post: 2273190, member: 10739"]I've come to know some about micro mosaics and own some myself. The discussion has been correct, this isn't the true micro mosaic size tesserae. But it is still referred to as micro mosaic. I tend to call the tinier size macro micromosaic. And I also agree that this pin is not from the 1920s but more likely 1930s-1950s. One good thing you have going is it is stamped Italy. This did not happen with every piece of mosaic jewelry. So that's a plus! It's more of a common type of micro mosaic jewelry piece though. It is the tinier macro micromosaic pieces that are harder to find and much more expensive. The price on the listing you showed is about right but it could even be less at around $20. Many people like to jack the price up and hope someone will pay it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hope this helps.</p><p>Dana[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
