18mm Millefiori Beads | Murano Glass Beads Sterling Silver | Made in USA
Venetian authorities moved all of the city's glass furnaces to the island of Murano in 1291, and the families who worked there spent the next seven centuries perfecting tricks like this one: flowers made of glass, blooming inside the bead itself. The mosaic pattern comes from fusing colored canes together, so every bead is a one-of-a-kind arrangement of miniature blossoms.

Here the glass gets a setting worthy of it — a slim frame of .925 sterling silver surrounding the 18mm disc like a picture frame around a tiny garden. The framed bead weighs 1.769 grams, and its 1mm hole threads onto standard wire, silk, or fine chain. Assembly takes place in the USA.
At 18mm this is a focal-point size, not a filler: hang one at the center of a simple chain and the necklace is finished, or match two for statement earrings. The silver border lets it sit comfortably in dressier designs where an unframed glass bead might read as casual.
For makers and wearers alike, it is a small, durable piece of Venice.
