Antique Murano Glass Earrings Venetian Roses w Gold

Price $65

"These antique Italian Venetian Sommerso glass earrings date from about the turn of the century. This exceptional pair is a long dangling pair with very large beads! Both earrings are in excellent condition and the hand made glass beads are perfectly matched in size, although slightly different in shape. The large beads are an unusual box shape, with smaller round beads above. The box beads are clear glass with mint green interior swirls that gives the glass a glowing overall minty green tone. On top of the green are swirls of pink roses, blue and white flowers, specks of canary yellow, and gold aventurine throughout. The box beads are 3/4"" long x 5/8"" wide ! The round upper glass beads are about 10 mm, or 3/8"" wide. The earrings hang down 2 1/2"" long. * It is very uncommon to find old Venetian glass earrings that hang down this long ! There are brass filigree flower bell caps on the tops and bottoms of all beds and the chain and screw backs are solid brass as well. The earrings have been professionally conditioned and cleaned, carefully leaving the old brass patina of age intentionally. There is no greening or oxidation to any of the brass components. The earrings are not signed but are certainly Italian. Very exquisite antique Venetian glass earrings ! "
