The trendy Murano Glass bracelet created by the world-famous glass artisans on Murano Island in Venice, Italy features rich colors, swirling patterns within each bead, and sparkles for unique and elegant look. To achieve such effects, the glass-makers employed centuries-old Sommerso technique, where colored threads of glass are submerged in transparent glass to create a layered effect. A special accent is the unusual sparkling effect created with copper particles added into the glass mixture. Stylish, artistic, and one-of-a-kind, this Murano bracelet will turn heads wherever you go and add Venetian chic to your outfit. Give this beautiful Venetian gift to yourself or someone you love.
Measurements: This Murano bracelet measures approximately 7 inches in length. Each bead is approximately 1/4 inch in diameter. The bracelet comes with an attractive velvet pouch and a certificate of authenticity.
Because each item is a unique work of art made by hand, slight variations of colors and patterns are possible.

I ordered two. Beautiful glass and well made. It is a very small around and while I can wear it, I have small wrists. Another two beads would be more wearable.

This is just lovely and since it is worn wherei can see it, that is even more enjoyable. I must comment that I have great difficulty hooking it on so just another link would be beneficial.

Workmanship
Avventurina is an ancient technique of Venetian glass-making, in which tiny pieces of copper are infused into the glass mixture for the unique sparkling effect that is characteristic of authentic Murano Glass. Using lampworking method master artisans heat up specially made glass canes produced by Murano Glass factories, then dip the blob of glass into avventurina shavings, then continue to twist and shape the glass into the design they want to achieve, sometimes also using sterling silver foil, gold foil and other additional accents to highlight the play of colors and create a truly unique piece of authentic Murano Glass. Avventurina glass beads, jewelry, rings, earrings are some of the most recognizable works of Murano Glass.
