Once of the greatest joys of going to Venice is that you never have to deal with traffic — there aren’t any roads! But when you need to get from island to island, boats are often the easiest way to travel.
That’s certainly the case when it comes to visiting the islands across the Venetian Lagoon. A 45-minute vaporetto ride from San Marco Piazza unveils Burano, the island known for its brightly colored homes and its long-established tradition of needle-lace making. Since the 1500s, this lace has captured the hearts of millions for its elaborate yet delicate designs.
Inspired by this legendary tradition, our best Italian artisans have crafted the Pride of Italy Necklace, a study in Italian 14k yellow gold that captures the artistry of its namesake island. Featuring an intricate, lace-like heart-shaped design paired with a rolo-link chain — meaning it’s composed of round links that are flat on the inside and rounded on the outside — this necklace combines Italy’s legacies of lace and metalwork to create something beautiful.
