The glass core of the bead is wrapped with 100% pure silver foil which is then encased in glass and shaped to the finished size.These beads (also known as Venetian Glass) are handmade on the island of Murano within the Venetian lagoon in Italy. The murano glass artisans are regarded worldwide as the masters of their art.
We source the beads direct from the makers so you can be confident all of our beads are genuine Murano glass.
We recommend the use of a diamond file to smooth any sharp edges.
