Venetian Delight

I named this necklace “Venetian Delight” because of the wonderful vintage Venetian glass bead (black with stripe). I found a strand of these beauties in almost perfect condition. I can only imagine how many hands they have passed through over the years.  I also used my favorite stones (blue) Grandidierite.  It has the most sumptuous color and is harder for me to find these days.  This is a sweet everyday piece!
