Vintage Italian micromosaic mandolin brooch ~ c. 1930s 1940s mosaic souvenir pin

Sweet and wonderfully pretty, this elegant mid-century vintage Italian micromosaic brooch is in the shape of a mandolin and positively sings (music pun intended) with the spirit of the marvellous Mediterranean nation that it hails from. 😀 This well-made, featherlight vintage Italian micro mosaic pin dates to circa 1930s - 1950s. It stars a lovely mille fiori style design of flowers and surrounding tiles in shades of blue, white, green, yellow, red, and reddish orange, all of which are nestled in brass/dark gold tone metal.
