Description
This elegant glass bead hairpin is blue, evoking the image of cold winter, and is sprinkled with sparkling silver foil and pure white snowflakes.
Using traditional glass bead techniques, we have created a glass bead with a friendly and adorable original design. Tiny snowflakes that create beautiful geometric patterns are scattered throughout the glass bead. It is said that no two snowflakes in the world are exactly alike, and each snowflake trapped inside this glass bead is also subtly different in shape. The simple design means you can insert the glass bead without worrying about the orientation, making it an easy pattern to use even for beginners.
Designer's thoughts
Rokka means snow crystal. As the name suggests, the beautiful flower-like shapes are natural formations that can only be seen in the cold winter. The delicate, small crystals are trapped in the beads. This hairpin, with a snow crystal motif, which is also said to be a "letter sent from heaven," makes a perfect gift.
