Antique Venetian Millefiori Murano Glass Bead Necklace 23" Graduated Black 16mm

This striking vintage Venetian Millefiori art glass necklace features a beautifully graduated strand of handmade Murano mosaic beads. The beads graduate from 8.8mm near the clasp up to a bold 16.1mm focal centerpiece bead at the front. Set against a glossy black glass base, each bead is decorated with vibrant, multi-colored floral murrine canes in shades of red, blue, orange, white, and green. The necklace measures 23 inches in length, falling into a highly desirable, versatile mid-length category. Accented with traditional brass filigree bead caps and tiny golden spacer beads, the piece is securely finished with its original vintage metal barrel screw clasp. A timeless piece of Italian wearable art jewelry.
