Handmade Murano glass necklace featuring a red ruby heart with relief motifs and a submerged 24 kt gold leaf, length 44 cm, total weight 50 g, glass button closure with black seed beads, supplied in a gift box with a certificate of originality.
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.
