Ercole Moretti was established in 1911 on the initiative of three brothers, with the intention of producing two classic types of Venetian glass beads: the “Rosetta” and the mosaic *Millefiori*. Right from their very first years in operation, the Morettis developed a production of *millefiori* beads that immediately stood out, and still does, for their even execution as well as their unusual and unmistakable finish.

This lovely millefiori glass bead necklace is a wonderful example of the early Moretti work.

The beads measures taper in size from 9 mm to 20 mm by the center. Each bead is separated by a tiny blue glass bead

The complete necklace is hand knotted without clasp.

End to end it meaures 31 cm long

All the beads are intact with no chips or cracks. 

The level of detail is quite super.
