The Bubble Necklace is another item introduced to the MoMA Stores by Bonnie Mackay that has become a signature product. Bonnie first came across the necklace in a small shop in Milan and then sourced it back to its designers in Venice.
The delicate appearing but highly wearable necklace is designed and produced by sisters Marina and Susanna Sent on the island of Murano. They come from a family of Venetian glassblowers but launched their own business to integrate their contemporary aesthetic with the region’s ancient techniques. Unusual for the area, most of the company’s glass blowers are women. Bonnie’s ongoing relationship of more than 10 years with the Sent sisters resulted in a series of best-selling and MoMA exclusive products.
