Heart measures approximately 23.5mm x 26.3mm x 7.6mm. Pendant on 16 inch 2mm black rubber cord with sterling silver clasp.
Pâte de verre is a formula for cast lead crystal glass developed among ancient classical societies and revived by French decorative arts like Galle and Tiffany at the turn of the 20th Century. We have developed our own process down to the point of being able to imitate original material. Some cast pieces resemble gem stones such as amethyst, sapphire, tourmaline or emerald. It can also look like jade or agate with the opaque coloured glass.
