Description from the seller
This Murano glass necklace is a fresh and elegant handmade jewel, characterized by the thousand shades of blue and by precious inclusions of sunken silver leaf.
The necklace is handmade in authentic Murano glass. At the center stands a wide rhombus in aquamarine blue glass with sunken silver leaf, with a satin, matte, and velvety finish to the touch. The silver, seen through the satin surface, creates a delicate and luminous effect, reminiscent of glass smoothed by the sea or the transparency of ice. Small silver cups shaped like flowers enhance its form.
Along the thread alternate beads of different shapes and workmanship. Two rhomboid beads with a soft, slightly twisted shape, in blue glass, enclose a dense granulation of silver and fine blue cobalt threads that run through them like waves. Two turquoise blue glass discs with sunken silver leaf catch the light with brilliant reflections. Six oval, twisted pearls, in pastel blue tones with an iridescent finish, flicker with mother-of-pearl and color-shifting reflections with every movement.
All of it is joined by a transparent seed-bead thread with a silver core, the traditional Venetian glass beads that harmonize with the pearl reflections. The lobster clasp with extension chain, finished by a small turquoise crystal, makes it easy to adjust the length.
The play between the satin matte rhombus, the shine of the silver, and the changing light of the iridescent pearls gives the necklace a refined and luminous character, like the reflections of water on Venice’s canals. Perfect both with an elegant look and with a simpler style, it makes each piece unique and original.
This necklace is ideal as daily wear jewelry, a collectible object, or a refined gift idea.
The piece comes with an authenticity certificate attesting its provenance and originality.
Each creation is delivered in the elegant Bottega Isola packaging. The box bears a different Murin a small detail, which represents the signature of authenticity.

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.
