How were roman mosaic created?

They were created by little pieces of glass Originally mosaics were made of pebbles of various natural colours. Later they were made of small pieces of stone, shells, ivory and other materials. Marble and limestone were also used. Later still, coloured and clear glass backed with metal foil was used. The Byzantines introduced gold leafs sandwiched between two flatter pieces of glass. The small pieces were called tessera (plural tesserae). There are two methods of making mosaics: The direct method is used especially for small portable three dimensional objects, such as vases. The tesserae are glued directly on the object's surface. The indirect method is used for large mosaics or repetitive patterns. The tesserae are applied face down of backing materials and then transferred to the floor or walls. There is also the double indirect method. This is a modern technique.


What are Roman mosaics used for?

Five facts that I thought were interesting about Roman mosaics are that the design of how the tesserae will be laid out is scratched into a thin layer of mortar first, then the tesserae were placed on the mortar, following the pattern. Also, sometimes to make the mosaics very strong, they made a foundation out of broken stones and gravel, then put the mortar down and laid the tesserae out. Another fact I thought was interesting is that the way they designed mosaics is they had books called "pattern books" that had some designs to choose from. Sadly, none have survived. A fourth fact is that Roman mosaic artists almost never signed their work. Lastly, some of the first mosaics were made from colored rocks and pebbles instead of tesserae.
