AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Entirely handmade in Murano, this necklace embodies all the passion of Venetian red in a heart sculpted by flame.

The heart, in transparent deep red glass, is lamp-worked and decorated with elegant swirls and raised scrolls, applied by hand one by one in the same red, in a refined tone-on-tone effect. Tiny dots soften its silhouette. When struck by light, the glass glows and reveals all the depth of its color.

On the sides, two pairs of clear crystal pearls with a soft shape enclose a sunken gold leaf, which shines with warm, precious reflections. The strand of glossy black seed beads frames it and creates an elegant contrast with the red and gold.

Even the clasp is part of the jewel: a button of ruby-red glass, decorated with the same swirls as the heart, hooks to a loop of black seed beads. It’s a traditional solution with no metal parts, making the necklace beautiful to look at even from the back.

A romantic yet decisive jewel, perfect to give to a loved one or to wear with a dark dress, where the red of the heart stands out with full intensity.

Each heart is unique: the pattern of the swirls, the glass hues, and the gold leaf weave vary from piece to piece. Tiny bubbles and irregularities are signs of artisanal craftsmanship, not defects.

Details
Technique: lamp-worked glass, with raised decorations applied hot and sunken gold leaf.
Length: about 48 cm (princess length, falls on the collarbones).
Heart: about 3 × 2.5 × 1.8 cm.
Thread: glossy black seed beads.
Clasp: lamp-worked glass button, with seed bead loop, no metal parts.

The necklace arrives in an elegant rigid jewelry box with a black velvet interior, ready to give as a gift. It comes with a certificate of originality attesting to the artisanal Murano glass craftsmanship.

Fast shipping, with careful and secure packaging.

Seller's Story

Hi, I'm the founder of Bottega Isola. I was born and raised on Murano, and glass runs in my family: I grew up around the furnaces, surrounded by a craft my family has carried for generations. I've always been drawn to design and to handmade, one-of-a-kind objects, the kind that make memorable gifts for any occasion. Inspired by many cultures and design styles but rooted in my island's tradition, I create and select pieces that carry the history of Murano glass into today's homes and spaces. Nothing here is chosen at random. Most designs go through several trials before they're just right, and each one has to bring something to the space it lives in, whether that's purpose, character or atmosphere. Every piece is handmade on Murano by some of the island's most skilled glass masters, using techniques passed down for centuries. Each one comes with a certificate of authenticity and is carefully hand-packed in professional, glass-safe packaging, so it reaches you safely wherever you are.
