€36.00
Paros is a red-purple, black and white striped Murano charm.
This charm has a Sterling silver 925 core.
We collect the original Murano glass on the Murano islands and ship it to our workshop in Athens. At the workshop, we use the glass to create tiny Murano charm art. Every bead is handmade and unique.
Murano glass is made on the Murano islands. The Murano islands consist of 7 islands and are located about 1,5 km from Venice. Murano is known for its glass factory, which opened in the 1200-century. The production was moved from Venice because of fire hazards.
