Paxos is a deep blue and green Murano charm.

Paxos is a small part of the Ionian Islands. The Greek island is approximately 25 km2 and has about 2,300 inhabitants. Next to Paxos lies the island of Antipaxos, a small island of 5km2 with only 20 inhabitants. Antipaxos is covered in vineyards. In Greek mythology, Poseidon created Paxos by beating Corfu with his wooden fork so he and his wife Amphitrite could have peace and quiet.This charm has a Sterling silver 925 core.

Melina collects the original Murano glass on the Murano islands and ships it to the workshop in Copenhagen. At the workshop, she uses the glass to create tiny Murano charm art. Every bead is handmade and unique. Murano glass is made on the Murano islands. The Murano islands consist of 7 islands and are located about 1,5 km from Venice. Murano is known for its glass factory, which opened in the 1200-century. The production was moved from Venice because of fire hazards.
