AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Entirely handmade in Murano, this necklace piece combines the elegance of black with a sequence of colored pearls, in a modern, bright play of contrasts.

The main pearls, lamp-worked one by one, are made of transparent colored glass, with an ivory glass ring around the holes that frames their color. Each pearl has its own shade: orange, turquoise, pink, emerald green, blue, plum and acid green. In backlight the glass glows and reveals fine veins and nuances, different in every piece.

The colored pearls are spaced along a strand of glossy black seed beads, flanked by larger black pearls that accompany their passage. The black acts as a backdrop and makes each color stand out, like notes on a score. The lobster clasp, with an extension chain, allows the length to be adjusted.

The opera-length brings the necklace to mid-torso: perfect over a turtleneck or a solid-color dress, where the colors really stand out. It can also be worn doubled, with two turns, for a shorter, gathered effect: one piece of jewelry for two different styles.

Each pearl is unique: the color shades and the glass veining vary from piece to piece. Any small imperfections are the natural mark of handmade craftsmanship.

Details
Technique: lamp-worked glass beads.
Length: about 77 cm, adjustable with the extension chain (opera length, falls to mid-torso; can be worn doubled).
Colored pearls: diameter about 1.5 cm, Murano glass.
Thread: black seed beads and black glass beads.
Closure: silver-colored metal lobster clasp, with extension chain.

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

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.
