Inspired by the dramatic contrast of sea foam against dark waters, this authentic Murano Glass Heart Bead features our distinctive Mare design, named after the Italian word for "sea." Handcrafted in Murano, Italy, the bead showcases flowing swirls of deep black and crisp white glass that intertwine like waves rolling across the Venetian Lagoon during a storm.
The striking contrast between black and white highlights the movement within the glass, creating a mesmerizing pattern that captures the energy and rhythm of the sea. Each heart is individually lampworked by Murano artisans using centuries-old Venetian glassmaking techniques, ensuring every bead is a unique work of art.
Measuring approximately 14mm x 14mm and 8mm thick, this heart bead includes a 1mm vertical hole running from top to bottom. Its versatile size makes it ideal for earrings, bracelets, necklaces, charm jewelry, and contemporary jewelry designs.
Elegant and timeless, this bead combines authentic Murano craftsmanship with a design inspired by the ever-changing waters that have shaped Venice for centuries.
Handmade in Murano, Italy.
