Separated by generations and a family secret, but united by the same passion: Murano crystal. Juliet, a young American of Italian descent, has always dreamed of becoming a glass artist. She leaves behind the future planned for her to travel to Murano, where she becomes the first woman admitted to the world's most prestigious glassmaking school. Before her departure, her old nanny entrusts her with an antique Venetian crystal necklace, asking her to find its owner. As Juliet navigates the fascinating world of glassblowers, she feels the jewelry gives her incredible strength and seems to hold secrets to which she might be linked. This richly documented novel by Cristina Caboni explores the world of glassmaking and portrays two strong, free women defying the prejudices of their time.
