The Italianissimo founders, Diane and Mauro Gennaretti, travel regularly to Italy, meeting with artists and designers to discover exciting new ideas for their elegant jewelry collection. They work with a new generation of glass artisans in Murano, an island in the Venetian Lagoon, to create innovative necklaces, bracelets and earrings. Each piece of glass is meticulously handmade using age-old flame-working glass techniques. Designs range from millefiori to battuto (hammered) glass in a rainbow of fashion colors. Their Tubino linkable jewelry collection features hypoallergenic tube necklaces and bracelets that link with Murano glass beads for different looks and styles.
