This beautiful and elegant ring is crafted in 22ct Gold and features a beautiful display of flowers on a pink background.  This very pretty 'picture' is a micro mosaic design.

The incredible detail on this ring doesnt stop on the face of the ring.  A top the decorated ring border sits a tiny red and white micro mosaic hibiscus flower, and what looks like a pansy created from intricate gold work sits at the bottom. 

This level of deatil suggests to me that this ring was made for someone in particular;  the forget me nots to to show them that they would not be forgotten, the pansy to 'think of me' and the hibiscus flower to show them that they represented beauty and joy.  All in all, this is a very romantic ring!

The ring weighs 2.47g and is a UK size N, which is a US size 6 3/4.

A note about Micro mosaics

In a practice dating back 2000 years, tiny glass tiles (called tesserae) are crafted together and placed carefully into cement to produce incredible ‘micro mosaic’ pictures, which are set into jewellery.  

The height of popularity for the micro mosaic was in the 17th to 19th Century, during a period of time called the Grand Tour era. Men and women of European families would travel around Europe, taking in the sights and cultures of different countries. Italy was a very popular tourist spot as it had a long and prestigious history in arts and culture – a favourite subject in aristocratic circles. It was also a famous glass producer, and canny Italian craftsmen quickly turned their glass making skills into making stunning miniature pictures.
