Victorian Floral Micromosaic Gold Dangle Earrings blue The 18th century was awashTextbook examples of the splendor of the Victorian archeological revival era and micromosaic jewelry are a sight to behold. Minute sized tesserae, or tiles, adorn the surmounts, center, and all along the articulated, swaying dangles. Floral motifs are rendered in various shades of sea shell and deeper pinks, reds, oranges against a background of French blue. A star shape in white rests against brick red and tiny patterned tiles of blue and white.
