Radiant and uplifting, this vintage Italian micro mosaic pill box features a bouquet of white and sky-blue blooms gathered on a field of brilliant red. Each glass tessera is hand cut and carefully set, creating a textured surface that glows with vibrancy and depth. The crisp contrast between the bright florals and the fiery background gives this piece an unmistakable energy. It is a joyful testament to the craftsmanship of mid-century Italy.

Encased in a silver-toned rope border, its circular form feels timeless and tactile. Once treasured by travelers who journeyed through Italy in the early 1900s, boxes like this were carried home as tokens of artistry and affection. Today, it can be part of modern life - a daily-use pill box, a thoughtful gift, or a striking conversation piece displayed in your home.
