Blue mottled Murano hand-blown glass hangs suspended in sterling silver spheres in these 1 1/2" drop earrings with graceful sterling silver flat ear wires. The glass beads are approximately 1/2" and the sterling circles great circles are close to an inch. Murano glass is Italian made glassware crafted using special methods, techniques, tools, and materials like silica, soda, and lime to create artistic effects. Most is made in Venice, particularly on the island of Murano. Today, there are many centers for fine glasswork, but Murano was Europe's luxury glassmaking center throughout the 15th and 16th centuries. These lightweight, colorful, and elegant earrings are versatile and make an excellent gift.

Cost: $56.00 USD
