These authentic Murano Glass Beads feature a interior body of .925 Sterling Silver foil over black glass and small bits of Calcedonia heavily encased in clear Murano Glass. The size is approximately 20mm in length (through the hole) and 20mm diameter. The sasso, pebble shape, is entirely created by hand so varies by bead. Calcedonia Glass was first developed in Murano in the 15th Century and brought to the art world by the sculptures of Loredano Rosin and now his brother Dino Rosin. It's secret is the silver nitrate added to the glass during the batch in the furnace. The silver reacts differently, depending on the humidity, the fire and again when we put it on the beads and into the fire. The color is never quite the same and it's truly an aventure to try and work with this incredible changing color glass. It's a costly product and we use sparingly in our beads, just enough to give it a unique look.
