I love this pendant..unique, very well made and beautiful. I like larger jewelry pieces. I put my sun pendant on a long, black silk cord.

It was bigger than I thought it would be and a bit heavy but looked gorgeous on! Have worn it several times since I received it.

I have always liked sun items, so I was drawn to the Venetian sun pendant. It is a little larger piece of jewelry than I usually wear, so I will probably use it as a sun catcher most of the time--and as a pendant when I want something a little different than usual. Again, the service was excellent.

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.
