“Gibigiana” necklace with bead

The "gibigiane" are the gleams of light that radiate from the water of Venice's canals, creating intricate reflections on the stone walls and bridges. This necklace showcases the green tones of the Venetian canals. The "sommerso" beads feature layered glass illuminated by aventurine, a copper-infused glass paste that sparkles like magic. At the center is a "paternostro" bead—a large bead named after the rosary beads of old. It is crafted by covering a wooden base with tiny seed beads ("conterie") and aventurine, giving it a distinctive vintage character.
