The Victorians loved their puppers as much as we do. In 1860, these micromosaics were made to celebrate two fine hounds: looks to me like a mastiff and a spaniel. Formerly a pair of earrings, we've added chains to make them into necklaces. Aventurine glass (goldstone), multicolored glass tesserae, GOOD DOGGIES. Sold separately.
