Vintage Italian Micro-Mosaic Gold Trinket Box — Marked Italy

$88.00

This vintage Italian micro-mosaic trinket box, marked Italy, is a stunning example of old-world craftsmanship in miniature form. The lid is adorned with a raised floral micro-mosaic design, created from hundreds of tiny hand-set tesserae arranged into a vibrant bouquet.

The gold-tone metal body features decorative engraved detailing, giving the piece depth, warmth, and timeless appeal. Originally made as a personal keepsake or souvenir, today it’s perfect as a ring or earring box, a vanity accent, or a styled object layered into shelves and tablescapes.

Small in scale but rich in detail, this is the kind of piece that makes a space feel thoughtfully collected.
