I bought this in Venice, one of the places I visited on a trip to Italy over a decade ago. The heart shape is cute, but I bought it because the color reminded me of the Blue Grotto on Capri. The Blue Grotto itself was also wonderful(^^) The glass is about 2.5 centimeters in both length and width. The cord is about 20 centimeters long. I think it would look great against a black sweater.
