Wear the Colors of Italy’s Legendary Regatta

-

The Regata Storica started in 1489, when the beautiful Caterina Cornaro, wife of the King of Cyprus, renounced her Cypriot throne in favor of Venice.

The people of Venice welcomed her with a parade of elaboratel­y-decorated gondolas, in a rainbow of popping colors. Every year since, the spirit of 1489 is recaptured in those world-famous canals when the famous Regata is repeated.

Our Cornaro Necklace is the essence of Venice, with the revelry of the Regata channeled into one perfect piece of jewelry. The gorgeous colors recall the Regata itself, and the 59 beads of authentic Murano are the only thing as historic and uniquely Venice as those gondolas. Each necklace is handmade by the legendary Murano glassmaker­s, where the proud Venetian tradition has been passed down from generation to generation, dating back to before the city threw that first famous party for Caterina.

Thanks to the Regata, we’ve visited Venice often and made great contacts, which is how we found and negotiated the best possible price on the highest quality Murano available. Now’s your chance to share in the spirit of this legendary event without needing to break out your passport.

Satisfacti­on guaranteed or your money back. Enjoy the gorgeous colors of the Cornaro Murano

Necklace for 30 days. If it doesn’t pass with flying colors, send it back for a full refund of the item price.

“...businesses on the crowded little island [Murano] also produce high fashion jewelry found on runways and in exclusive social settings around the world”.

— The New York Times

Limited Reserves. You could easily pay $300 or more for a Murano glass bead necklace, but at $29, this genuine handmade Murano won’t last. Don’t miss the boat!
