Elena

A scarlet poppy and soft pink bloom sit among tiny white daisies, yellow blossoms, and fresh green leaves on a deep emerald ground. The flowers have the loose, gathered quality of a posy picked from a garden, translated into impossibly small pieces of hand-cut glass.

Made in the tradition of Italy's Grand Tour, when a mosaic carried home from Rome held the memory of a whole season abroad, Elena is one of a kind and built to endure. Set her on a bedside table, let her hold rings and studs by the sink, keep a tiny memento inside, or give her as a gift meant to be handed down.

• Materials: Hand-cut glass tesserae set in a gilt-metal case.
• Era: Mid-20th century (c. 1950s), Italian Grand Tour revival.
• Condition: Vintage, with gentle wear that adds to its history and charm.
• Unique: No two are alike; this is the exact piece you will receive.
• Size: Approximately 3.5 x 3 x 1.5 cm (small).
