  • can you show the "18th c. italian glass" please?
  • Sorry the image does blend in too much with the background -therefore you might not see the pressed dark blue glass beads - this item is sold and it is the only image I have. Murano glass I would say.
  • if the beads are "pressed" (= moulded) then I doubt they are venetian, more likely bohemian 20th c. , as I think I can see one with facets near the clasp, But we cant even see their shape-
    the porcelain spiral shell disc is interesting though...
