Valeria necklace with red and gold Venetian bead and gold spirals

Did you know that some Italian wine comes from vineyards on the slopes of active volcanos? The volcanic ash gives extra nutrients to the grapes, and the high elevation provides a superior growing environment.

The focal point of this necklace is also an import from Italy and has a bit of lava-like glow. It’s Venetian glass, deep wine-red with 24K gold foil embedded in the bead and applied to the surface. Complementing this stunning bead are Swarovski crystals and handmade gold-filled spiral links. An attached chain extender lets you customize the length to go with any of your dressy outfits.

• Glass bead handmade by a Venetian glass maker
• Swarovski crystals
• 14K gold-filled dapped cable chain finished with a lobster clasp
• All other metal components are 14K gold-filled
• Length: 17 1/2 inches, with an attached extender to adjust the length up to 20 inches
