A micromosaic and gold bracelet
Date 1800
Epoque Early 19th century
Dimension 16 cm (6¹/₄ inches)
Very delicate bracelet in micromosaic on a vitrified support in aventurine glass made of twelve elements linked together by a gold chain, made by the master goldsmith François Dafrique.

For the main part we note:

-The pyramid of Cestia
-The ruins in Via Appia
-The bridge of Lucano

These views and monuments are reconstituted by means of "tesserae" of a very rare finesse.
Chipping on the support of the central medallion almost invisible (upside down).

Dimension bracelet open: 16cm
Dimensions of the central medallion: 2,1 cm/1,7 cm
Dimensions of the extreme medallion: 1.5 cm / 1.1 cm
