The Antica Murrina Daniela Spring Summer collection continues to combine innovative design with the traditional methods of Venetian glass blowing to consolidate its own unique and distinctive niche in the fashion arena. This season glows with colour as the transparent and light reflective nature of each glass piece radiates with an ethereal quality. With the aim of creating a luxury house with accessibility, Antica Murrina ensures that its detailing is exceptionally polished with each stone being very finely worked and finished by hand creating a very individual experience for each viewer.

 The Daniela collection has 4 distinct themes running through it which are all linked through the quality of the glass. The first one, the ‘Sugar series’ sees a sumptuous, mouth watering delight of texture and sugar finished designs fit for a fantasy world. Irregular shapes, grainy surfaces and delicate lollipop shades in amethyst, powder pink, green and steel–gold create a rainbow of dewy treats just waiting to be devoured. As the light hits the dappled face of the beads in the Sweet and Sugar ranges the rich and luxurious nature of each necklace, bracelet, ring and earrings is exposed. The Candy necklace makes a statement with its alternate sugared bulbs, chrome links and glass beads.

The second grouping is the ‘Tribal series’ which sees a deviation into an exotic, earthy feel.  This line is distinguished by a special grinding process which produces abstract tribal markings which are then highlighted by the exposure of a contrasting colour within the ground notches. The Dakota, Alabama and Indiana lines use hammered metal rings throughout which have a distinctive worn surface to further develop the intriguing cultural tones of this series. Crystal beads are used throughout each set in this series to give a subtle embellished contrast to each piece.

The irregular shapes of each glass boule in this next ‘Transparent series’ support the translucent and airy quality of Antica Murrina, as light bounces off the jagged edges of the beads. This series uses a cracked ice effect and keeps all original veining in every glass peace making each set unique from the next. The Alaska necklace radiates a glowing feel with the use of gold and rhodium metal leaves along side the lucid stones. The colourways range from steel to powder through to amber, which evokes memories of a glowing golden Autumn afternoon. The shorter Kiruna necklace follows the same theme with 3 cracked glass beads as the centre point, contrasted with metal links and descending balls.

 The last line named the ‘Party series’, sees a play on shape and colour. It reflects a youthful playfulness with a mix of half moon, circle, diamond and irregular shapes combined with strong, contrasting colour. The Party and Cocktail sets are teamed back with kidney bean shaped chain links with the latter using its length to create a statement. The Spritz necklace uses the same combination of random shapes as a pendant on a leather rope chain.
