About The Art of Micromosaic
Each micromosaic is created by hand-setting microscopic glass tiles to form intricate avian or floral images. This process is highly time-intensive, requiring steady precision to ensure every tiny tile sits perfectly flush within its 18k gold filigree border. Because of this complexity, no two pieces are ever identical, providing you with a truly one-of-a-kind miniature painting that rests against your skin.
This ancient technique acts as a bridge between painting and jewellery making. I house these mosaics in frames of 18k yellow or rose gold, often surrounding them with natural diamonds or gemstones like Zambian emeralds to add depth and contrast. Unlike mass-produced items, these require patience to assemble, turning every earring or pendant into a sculptural work of art.
While the glass tiles are durable, they do demand gentle care. A simple wipe with a soft, dry cloth is sufficient for maintenance. Please avoid using ultrasonic cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can weaken the adhesive and the delicate tile settings. I design these pieces to be lightweight despite their intricate appearance, ensuring you can wear them comfortably for long hours at weddings or events.
Whether it is a hummingbird motif or a classic floral scene, these designs are meant to be heirlooms, passed down as memories. If you have a specific scene, bird, or floral memory you want to capture in gold, I offer one-on-one custom design consultations at my Mumbai studio to bring those personal stories to life.
