*Already in the 11th century the art of glass production was practiced in Venice. Due to the narrow development of the city and the fire needed for production, the glassmakers were referred to the island of Murano in 1291 for safety reasons.
Glass beads were used in former times not only for the use for jewelry but also as a means of exchange or favors.
In different colours, glass rods are turned over an open flame into small beads and finished with white or yellow gold leaf foil. It is a hardened special glass, which is made exclusively on Murano and can be recognized by a particularly intense colour depth retailer and radiance. Pearl making is a true craftsmanship and every pearl is unique.
