Blue Flax Bead Marjoke van de Plassche Glass as a material offersThis bead left the collection in 2012. In ancient Egypt they used flax to make clothing, just as we do today. Flax is summer, it is sun, and should you stumble across it in the wild, its tiny light blue flowers are lovely to behold. Please note: Each glass bead is handmade over a red hot open flame and no two glass beads are ever completely alike. This goes for size, colouration and pattern. Your bead may have slight variations from the bead pictured.
