The shimmer of fine Murano seed beads tied into gently flowing strands set this Murano Glass necklace apart from any other jewelry piece you've seen before. The mix of round and tube-shaped beads and real 24K gold fused in the glass create pure magic, a great match to the splendor of Venice. Twist the necklace a little or a lot for more dramatic effect.Murano's ancient tradition of crafting seed beads to make jewelry and decorate clothing dates back centuries, and as recently as early 20th century seed bead making was the primary occupation of Venetian women. Today top "haute couture" designers use Murano's famous seed beads in their top creations.
We also recommend the matching Gloriosa 12 Strand Bracelet to complete the look.
Measurements: The necklace has 12 strands of seed beads (6 black and 6 gold ones) and measures 20 inches in length.
This Murano Seed Bead Necklace comes with the velvet pouch and the certificate of authenticity.

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.
