Item # : MM8211_NT
Unique and beautiful, this Venetian glass pendant is contemporary and timeless at once. Marble-like appearance combined with a very tender cream color create an artistic one-of-a kind look that is very feminine.
The heart measures 1 1/4 inches in height and the same in width. It comes in an attractive velvet pouch and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
Because each item is a unique work of art made by hand, slight variations of colors and patterns are possible.

Workmanship
Lampworking technique of glass-making, which dates back to ancient Egypt, was revived by Murano glass artisans around the fourteenth century. This technique is based on heating up a blob of glass under a small flame from a lamp or a torch until it reaches malleable state, then blowing and using simple tools or just hands to create various forms and designs. Lampworking allows the artisan's creativity to blossom, as copper sparkles, various minerals, and pieces of glass cane are fused together in this process to create rich colors and imaginative patterns that are always unique. Murano Glass masters often use lampworking method to create small jewelry, such as pendants, earrings, or rings, as well as keychains, barrettes, pillboxes, and figurines.
