A pink blossom and a blue bloom open above a gathering of white flowers on a creamy ivory ground, framed by a ring of deep green and a twist of gilt rope. Every petal is shaped from hand-cut glass, each tessera set by hand.
Made in the tradition of Italy's Grand Tour, when a mosaic was carried home from Rome as a quiet souvenir of a life-changing journey, Bianca is one of a kind and built to endure. Rest her on a writing desk, let her hold rings beside the basin, keep a keepsake or two inside, or give her as a gift meant to be handed down.
