If you are in love with Venetian glass, Murano pendants can be an amazing way to introduce it into your jewelry collection. The right pendant can be a perfect accent piece to add color and style to an outfit and a great way to add handmade artwork to your daily life.

People who are interested in purchasing Murano pendants may be surprised at the range of choices and colors they can pick from. There are numerous different styles of glass that range from abstract to floral patterns and from modern to classic designs. Your personal style should help you decide which you want to buy.

If you are interested in finding glass which sparkles, you may want to try Avventurina style glass, which shimmers with fragments of metal oxides. If you like floral motifs, you will love Millefiori which uses canes of glass that have been cut up into flower-shaped mosaics, then fused together into intricate floral patterns. Or, if you want a trendy pattern that features bubbles, you may want to try Bullicante glass which is made with introducing bubbles of varying sizes into a piece of glass.

More abstract patterns can be found in Filligrana glass, which uses fine canes of glass inside a larger piece. The small threads of color are manipulated to form a pattern which can be very intricate. There is also Fenicio which can produce a festooned richly colored pattern on the glass.

Nature lovers may be interested in Chalcedony glass which gives a look similar to pieces of marble or other veined stone. Colored glass runs through a darker background which can give it a very dramatic yet natural look that may interest a lot of people.

If you are interested in a Murano pendant, there are many different styles to pick from. Much of the look will come from the glass itself, but there can be quite a difference depending on the shape of the pendant and how the pendant is mounted. Murano pendants come in a wide variety of shapes to fit any style and preference. From animal motifs such as a butterfly or a snake, to floral themes such as calla lilies, to classic forms like heart and knots, to any kind of geometric shape Murano offers a wealth of options and styles.

Mounting further allows you to pick the right style to reflect your personality. If you want a more formal look, you may be interested in a Millefiori pendant that is mounted in a frame of precious metal such as silver or gold. There are also pendants which are shaped to allow a cord or chain to flow through a hole in the pendant itself. They can give a trendy and informal look that is also appealing to many people.

Taking good care of your pendants is important to ensure that they last as long as possible. If they are set into a frame make sure that they fit tightly within the frame to keep the glass from falling out. It is possible to tighten up the glass which has become loose, but it is not usually possible to repair glass once it has been broken.

If you choose a piece which reflects your personality and take care of it properly, a Murano pendant can be a piece of wearable art that can add beauty to your wardrobe for years to come.
