Micro-mosaics are created from tiny fragments of tesserae, generally made from glass or enamel, set to form small pictures. The size of the tesserae is as little as the lead in a mechanical pencil (about 1 mm). Making a micromosaic is a painstaking process. One common method includes melting glass, pulling it into thin rods or threads, and then, after it cools, cutting it into tiny pieces that are then arranged on a copper or gold tray to create a scene, portrait, or landscape. Many depict ancient Italian landmarks or scenes from nature such as animals or plants. According to GIA, one square inch of micro mosaic jewelry can have as many as 1,400 pieces of tesserae. Some can even have as many as 3,000 to 4,000.
