A Bracelet Sized strand of tiny Purple Flower shaped Recycled Glass Beads on string. Each bead is about 11 mm x 2 mm. The beads are Flowers with one side Purple and the other Red. These beads are handmade so they will vary in size, shape and pattern. Purple is a very complex colour. There are so many variations. It is said purple symbolizes magic, mystery, spirituality, the sub-conscious, creativity, dignity, royalty – and it does evoke all of these meanings more so than any other color. Further variations of purple can convey different meanings. For instance light purples are light-hearted, floral, and romantic. The dark shades are more intellectual and dignified. You either love purple or you don’t.
