AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Fully handmade in Murano, this glass sphere pendant is a small embroidery of glass, where coral red intertwines with the transparency of crystal.

The sphere, lamp-worked, has a heart of transparent crystal glass, entirely enveloped by thin filaments of coral red glass, applied by hand one by one. The filaments wind into swirls, curls and small raised dots, creating an arabesque motif reminiscent of fretwork. The decoration recalls carved red coral, but it is drawn directly at the flame: between one swirl and another the crystal lets light pass through, giving depth and lightness to the entire sphere.

The pendant is mounted on a headpin finished by two small red spacers and a gold-plated cup, and it slides along a delicate forzatina chain thanks to a gold-plated bail with a worked surface. The spring ring clasp, with an extension chain, allows length adjustment.

The princess length brings the sphere to the base of the neck, just above the collarbones. A refined jewel with a bold character, perfect to wear every day or to gift to someone who loves red and detailed work.

Each pendant is unique: the pattern of the swirls and the arrangement of the curls vary from piece to piece. Small bubbles and irregularities are a sign of artisanal craftsmanship, not defects.

Details
Technique: lamp-worked glass, with raised decorations applied hot.
Length: about 44 cm, adjustable with the extension chain (princess length, falls at the base of the neck).
Sphere: about 1.8 × 1.8 cm, Murano glass.
Chain: forzatina chain.
Metal: gold-colored metal (chain, bail and spring ring).

The necklace arrives in an elegant rigid jewelry box with a black velvet interior, ready to be gifted. It is accompanied by 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.
