Murano Glass Aventurine Foil Earrings

Story

Venetian glassmakers discovered this 'accidental' copper-infusion technique in the 17th century. These beads carry that secret legacy, turning molten glass into a wearable sunset of metallic stardust.

Maker / Origin

While the specific artisan is unknown, these beads are the product of the Murano glass tradition, a small island in Venice that has guarded its glassmaking secrets under penalty of death for over 700 years.

Condition & Value

The glass beads appear to be in excellent condition with no visible chips. The metal ear wires show slight oxidation consistent with age, which can be easily polished. Good condition maintains the mid-range value. Value is driven by the handmade nature of the glass.
