Neodymium! An absolutely gorgeous deep lilac purple pendant made with incredible Italian art glass/sea glass is found on the coast of northwestern Italy. This Tuscan beauty is truly a treasure with incredibly rich color and frosty, thick sea glass. And yet, there’s more!

Oh, my neodymium! This incredible purple sea glass is a sight, but when you find out it also contains the chemical element neodymium in the glass, and that makes it change colors in a different light? Insane! That’s right - this fantastic purple art glass sea glass from Italy has a secret: under natural light, it is vibrant purple, but under fluorescent light, it’s blue! The color change happens like magic as you move between light sources. It’s simply amazing to see! I have watched these rare pieces change hundreds of times, and they still amaze me every time.

Beautifully set in solid silver with a fully integrated silver twist bail - this is a piece of dreams!

Measurements:

* Pendant Measurement at widest points: 40 x 23 mm

* Chain Length: 19 inches (3 mm round rolo chain)

* Total drop from the top of the chain to the bottom of the pendant: 11 inches

I am so pleased to have the opportunity to work with pieces of incredible and truly rare sea glass from the coast of Tuscany. My travels abroad have allowed me to beachcomb on this beach, and it’s been a true gift from the sea glass heavens! I look forward to showing you all some stunning pieces made with vintage Italian art glass sea glass that have been collected over the past few decades. The colors will blow you away! Bellissimo!
