Here’s a quick guessing game! They pack a ka-pow color explosion, each one is totally unique and they’ve been around since 1291. What are they? Italian Murano glass bracelets and jewelry, of course! If you haven’t yet discovered Murano glass jewelry, you’re about to go to glass jewelry heaven!

Here’s some background. In 1291 Venetian glassmakers moved to the Italian island of Murano. Their Murano glass jewelry creations and Murano glass beads were so ‘hold your breath’ beautiful that the glassmakers were almost nobility. Their technique was, and is, called ‘millefiori’, meaning ‘thousand flowers’, and once you see a real Murano glass jewelry piece, you’ll know why! Each glass bead is hand-made, and as a result, is totally individual.

Murano glass bead bracelets and jewelry is hot this season, and no wonder! There’s a Murano glass bracelet to match every outfit in your closet. Be careful though – make sure when you’re buying that you’re getting the real thing and not an imitation. How will you know? Consider these tips!
