Vintage Genuine Ercole Moretti Glass Pendant, Venice
Authentic vintage handmade glass pendant made exclusively on the small island of Murano in Venice by the Ercole Moretti company. This is the oldest active glass-manufacturing company on the island where artisans still use traditional methods to make beautiful items from glass. The company is world-renowned for its unique tradition of quality glassmaking.
This beautiful half-moon shaped glass pendant is made using a process involving skilfully slicing segments from long coloured rods of glass and fusing them together to create a unique work of art. The pendant is solid glass with a smooth finish. When held up to the light you can see that some of the centres of the circle designs are a brilliant shade of blue glass, very attractive (see photo).
Each pendant made by the Ercole Moretti company comes with an official trademark consisting of a holographic seal on the reverse with their 003 identification number (as seen in the photo). Whilst this pendant pattern is part of a series, no two pendants are identical due to the artisan process.
This is a beautiful original glass pendant strung on a felt cord with clasp for immediate wear and comes with a black organza gift bag. Ideal to give as a gift or to treat yourself.
