Composition: metallized plastic, Murano glass beads* Production method: handmade Condition: very good Color: gold, red Marking: none Country: from the USA Period: around 1970-1980.
*The wavy pattern inside the glass with a metallic sheen is typical of the Murano “avventurina” technique, where copper or gold powder is used in the glass. Irregularities, small air bubbles or uneven patterns confirm that this is not machine-made, but made by “lampwork” (flame forming).
Very textured, with a soft sheen, likely a higher quality plated metal or metallized plastic. This combination is typical of vintage Italian designer bracelets (especially from the 1970s-1990s). The end of the wire is visible (clipped), which means the bracelet was professionally strung - again a sign that this is not cheap mass-produced jewelry.
