Murano Glass Pendant







One of the most popular types of jewelry throughout history has been glass jewelry.
A lot of glass jewelry is in the shape of beads and pendants.
Murano glass made jewelries is one of the unique glass jewelries.
Very few people are familiar with Murano glass jewelry. All these people are drawn to its sophistication and uniquely beautiful colors and design. Hence, every piece of such jewelry will surely make a fine addition to any jewelry or accessory collection.
Murano glass has been a famous product of the Venetian island of Murano for centuries. Located off the shore of Venice, Italy, Murano was a commercial port as far back as the 7th century. By the 10th century it had become a well-known city of trade.
Today Murano remains a destination for tourists and art and jewellery lovers alike.
It is believed that glassmaking in Murano originated from 9th century Rome, with significant Asian and Muslim influences, as Venice was a major trading port. Murano’s reputation as a centre for glassmaking was born when the Venetian Republic, fearing fire and destruction to the city’s mostly wooden buildings, ordered glassmakers to move their foundries to Murano in 1291. Murano glass is still interwoven with Venetian glass.
Murano beads are intricate glass beads influenced by Venetian glass artists. Since 1291, the Murano glassmakers have refined technologies such as crystalline glass, enamelled glass (smalto), glass with threads of gold (aventurine), multicoloured glass (millefiori), milk glass (lattimo) and imitation gemstones made of glass producing beads and glasswork unmatched anywhere in the world.
The colors, technique of creation and design of each piece of this jewelry created from Murano glass redefines what delicate and exquisite in jewelry is. It simply recreates the awe-effect that diamonds normally posses. On the other hand, simpler yet chic designs of Murano glass necklaces, rings and bracelets also goes well with everyday wear.
December is coming and it’s the time for fun, and festivity, it is Christmas!
Christmas is a time for parties, get together and give gifts to your near and dear once.
Jewelry is the best gift for women because jewelry is a woman’s best friend.
And if you want to give a fabulous Christmas gift for that special girl whether it's your wife, fiancée, or girlfriend then jewelry would be great idea.
A piece of jewelry is not only an adornment, but also an emblem of that unarticulated love that lies hidden inside the hearts. Beautiful Murano Glass Jewelries are perfect for this occasion. Though there are good number of websites and local stores, but I experienced that fashion jewelry for everyone is really helpful for such special purpose. Not only their products are high class and excellent value for money but as I have found from my own experience they impart personal touches to ordered jewelry as per our suggestion, making it a really exciting affair.
