5 out of 5 starsThankyou for my wonderful parure, made to fit me so perfectly for a few dollars more. Beautiful glowing earthy orbs of perfection. I have two sets from this shop and it is my intention to help keep the Milano family glass factory fires burning, to never extinguish, so this art remains always. Recently, I watched a You Tube video-I love Venice. A tour through the Island Milano and glass making and how costly the gas is to make milano glass. Sadly, a number of factories have closed due to costs. It was a beautiful tour and the beauty in the artistic glass is alive in the soil of the Island as well as its people. Bravo.

5 out of 5 starsitems are absolutely beautiful and the online photos don't do them justice. they were packaged very carefully and despite how delicate they are there was no damage sustained and each came in a cute little box with information about the seller. the seller went above and beyond to try and fix an issue that was completely my fault. their customer service is excellent. highly recommend

4 out of 5 starsWe were just in Italy last month and only in Venice for a day and half and just enough time to visit a little of Murano and Burano and the Main island. My wife really loves taking pictures so we didnt get a chance to visit all the great shops. The quality and description of this bracelet is excellent. Packaging and care of shipment was very good too. I am sure she will love wearing it once she opens it on Christmas day.

Authentic glass jewelry, traditionally handcrafted in Venice
Miani Venetian Jewelry is a small family business designing and creating jewelry with authentic Murano Glass beads.
My name is Nicola Miani, and back in 2009 I opened my first glass jewelry shop with my sister, in Ghetto Novo, Venice. But my family is no stranger to handcrafting: my grandfather, my parents, my sister and I all experimented with different techniques and crafts - from wood and silver working to glass enamels - and I ended up devoting myself to designing jewelry with Murano glass beads.
I believe that handmade is worth the effort and that nothing made industrially will ever compare. That's why in our shop you’ll find only products handmade by us and by other esteemed artisans in Venice, using original Murano glass produced on the island of Murano.
When you buy one of our products, you buy more than just a jewel: the centuries of artistry, beauty and charm of Venice are captured in each of our handcrafted beads, and we'll make sure that you'll carry with you part of Venice's artistic legacy and of its unmistakable allure.

More information
Frequently asked questions
Are your jewels made of Murano glass?
The Trademark Vetro Artistico® Murano is a proof of origin provided by the Veneto Region in compliance with the law 70, passed on December 23 1994. It certifies that products have been made on the island of Murano, according to glass making tradition. It is managed by Consorzio Promovetro.
Our workshop is located in Venice, in sestiere of Cannaregio, and as such cannot request this proof of origin. We assure, however, that all glass rods used by us to make our beads are made of certified glass, and that production takes place in its entirety in the island of Venice, either by us or by other esteemed venetian artisans. The techniques used in glass processing reflect the centuries-old venetian tradition of beadmaking.
Is it true that your products are completely handmade?
Yes, all glass beads are produced either by us in our worshop in Venice or by other esteemed venetian artisans. The assembly of our jewels is entirely handmade by us. Small metal components and conterie - tiny glass beads - are purchased from trusted specialized third party companies, and are clearly wholesale products, since no one produce handmade materials such as these anymore.
Are your products nickel-free?
Yes, all small metal components used in our jewels are completely nickel-free.
Custom and personalized orders
We are available to all requests, both for single pieces or small exclusive collections. We will then discuss with you whether it is in fact possible to meet them, and on what terms.
