For centuries the glass blowing artisans of the island of Murano on the Venetian Lagoon were acknowledged as the best in the world. Today, this small island still produces some of the finest sculptures, chandeliers and mirrors available. Amongst their sparkling produce are glass beads lined with sterling silver and 24 carat gold foils and it has been an immense joy to walk the island’s sun drenched streets sifting through and selecting these handmade gems that form the heart of my current collection.


I have paired these beads with stunning natural gemstones to complement their beauty, and with pearls that evoke the Lagoon’s strong connection to the sea. I have used colours and tones that represent Venetian baroque luxury and the colour palette of the city itself as it floats effortlessly between the blue sky and the tranquil waters of the Venetian lagoon.
