The magic and beauty of Venice shines through in this Murano Glass Pendant and Earrings Set. Talented master artisans on Murano Island in Venice have been creating fine handmade glassware for centuries. The pendant and earrings are made by hand under a flame with 24K gold foil fused in the glass, and intricate patterns are formed as the glass mixture gradually solidifies. This means that no two items are ever the same, making the beauty of each jewelry set truly inimitable. With talent, eye for design, and decades of training in historic Murano workshops, Venetian artisans created this unique Murano Glass jewelry set that seems to reflect the lights and colors of Venice.
Measurements: The Murano glass diamond-shaped pendant has slightly convex shape and measures 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 inch. The back side has a pattern of words "Vetro di Murano" (Murano Glass) inscribed on it to help you rest assured that you are wearing an authentic Murano Glass accessory. The pendant comes on a black velvet cord. The Murano earrings in this set are square stud earrings and measure 3/8 x 3/8 inch. The set comes in a gift box and is accompanied by the certificate of authenticity.

This Murano Glass jewelry set is a unique handcrafted work of art created using special glass making technique, which results in unique random patterns, such that no two items are the same. In addition, some variations of colors are possible. The photo shows an item that is very similar to, but not exactly the same as the one you will receive.

The ultimate symbol of status and power, gold was always held in high regard in Venice. Once Murano Glass artisans learned how to infuse gold into their creations, their fame spread far beyond Venice. The captivating mix of 24K gold with transparent or colorful blown glass has been the secret of Venetian glass masters for centuries, the magic behind their artworks, which exude soft golden glow and sparkle gently in the light. More recently Murano artisans have been creating jewelry from Murano Glass beads lined with gold leaf. To create each bead the master wraps a very thin layer of 24K gold foil around the glass base under a flame, and then adds a layer of clear or colored glass on top. The gold-lined Murano Glass bead is then put into a special annealing camera, after which it is ready to become a pendant, be strung onto a necklace or bracelet, or used to create other jewelry. Enjoy your gold-infused Murano Glass jewelry, knowing that every bead was handcrafted with skill and utmost care in the famous glass workshops of Murano, Italy.
