This enchanting necklace centers around authentic 1920s Murano trade beads, originally crafted in Venice for the African market. These rare beads, with their rich history and vibrant artistry, are the heart of a design that feels both magical and timeless.
Adorning the piece are luminous white and green jade beads sourced from Hong Kong’s Jade Market in the early 2000s flanked by small midnight blue jade beads. Their ethereal glow of the jade evokes the serene beauty of moonlight, capturing the mystical allure of a full moonlit night. Warm tiger eye beads add an earthy contrast, grounding the design with natural warmth.
The composition is completed with textured solid silver beads, taken from a vintage Italian DoDo necklace. Together, these elements create a harmonious interplay of textures and colors, exuding an air of elegance and wonder.
Note: The Murano trade beads, nearly 100 years old, may feature small chips or subtle discolorations that enhance their vintage charm and character.
This necklace is more than jewelry—it’s a piece of wearable art that blends history, natural beauty, and the magic of moonlight.
