Description
Klimt Heart Murano Necklace in Blue
The Austrian symbolist painter, Gustav Klimt, is the inspiration for this unique necklace. Each heart-shaped pendant is handmade and one of a kind. The artisan blows gold foil into the background of the glass and adds colorful abstract pieces of glass in the foreground. Hung from a black suede cord with a gold Murano bead closure, the necklace has an adjustable length.
This stylish piece is reflective of the turn-of-the century designs seen in the sets created for the Met’s exquisite production of Die Fledermaus.

History
Johann Strauss’s Die Fledermaus
Johann Strauss’s beloved work, one of the jewels of the Golden Age of Viennese operetta, has long transcended its origins and become a staple of the operatic repertoire. It was first staged at Vienna’s Theater an der Wien in 1874. Twenty years later, a production at the Hamburg Opera, led by its chief conductor Gustav Mahler, helped raise its artistic status, and many major opera companies have presented Die Fledermaus since, including the Met, where it was first seen in 1905. A new production featuring a revised English libretto opens on New Year's Eve 2013.
