The making of a charm | Pandora

Murano glass has been a famous product of the Venetian island of Murano in Italy for centuries. Pandora glass charms are made from glass imported from Murano. The glass rods are of a high quality and the colours have depth and beauty.

A glass rod is heated over a torch flame until molten and wound around a specially-coated steel mandrel, forming the base charm. It can then be embellished or decorated using a variety of techniques.

As a characteristic of the production method, each Pandora Murano glass charm is unique and can contain small variations in the design, the colouring and the size. 

The making of a glass charm is an extremely advanced process that demands extraordinary craftsmanship skills. A multitude of imaginative details can be created using glass: From polka dots and graphic lines to striking stone embellishments and three-dimensional effects,  the beauty and bounds of this inspiration material are endless.

Creating a Murano charm | Pandora

The Murano glass charms are some of the most popular items from Pandora. All of Pandora´s murano glass is produced in a small island in the Venetian Lagoon called Murano, where glass has been produced for more than 1,200 years.
 
The craftsmen who use the old artistic way of producing the special murano glass are being held in oath to make sure the quality of murano glass stays the same as it has for centuries. The process starts with different layers of melted glass getting melted upon one another. This way the layers build on top of each other creating a variety of different colours and patterns that are so characteristic for the murano glass charms.
 
The people working with the glass are called master craftsmen. At this part of the process, the masters pair up two and two, and carefully drag the melted glass into thin rods, that can measure up to 50 meters in length.
 
Using modern technology together with the knowledge of the ancient skills, it’s also possible to use machines to drag the melted glass. 
 
Murano Glass is made from a mix of silica and chemical compounds that slow the solidification process. As this mixture is heated to very high temperatures, it liquefies, allowing the master to work the glass by giving it the desired shape and pattern. The glass is then cooled down, resulting in the creation of coloured glass rods, which are subsequently used to craft the wonderful Pandora Murano glass charms.
