FAQs

Wedding cake beads are decorative Italian glass components crafted primarily in Murano, featuring layered adornments such as raised glass flowers, aventurine swirls, and colourful trailings that resemble iced cake decorations.

Mid-century Italian ear clips were crafted by winding molten glass around a metal wire or mandril, layering copper-infused aventurine glass for sparkle, and hand-forming applied glass motifs before affixing metal clip-on backings.

Authentic examples feature dimensional, hand-applied glass ornamentation, copper-gold aventurine inclusions, and characteristic mid-twentieth-century metal clip mechanisms without modern screw adjustments.

These decorative glass ear clips function as focal accessories, pairing effectively with understated tailoring, plain knitwear, or formal evening attire to accentuate neckline and facial framing.

Clean the glass surfaces gently with a soft microfibre cloth slightly dampened with water, ensuring liquid does not penetrate the metal clip mechanisms or adhesive settings.
