Tiny Egyptian Scarab Beads - Set of 12 Assorted Colors
Egyptian Scarab Beads - Hand-carved Soapstone (Steatite).
Made in Luxor, Egypt.
Design, size, and color will have slight variations between each bead.
Bead size varies, approx. 0.5".
The ancient Egyptians believed that the scarab was the earthly manifestation of the god Khepri, and pushed the sun across the sky each day, only to disappear and magically reappear the next morning. As such, it is a powerful amulet for self-creation, transformation, and rebirth. They were worn or carried by the living, and also buried with the dead to help them on their way to the afterlife. The base was usually inscribed with designs or hieroglyphs to form an impression seal.
