About Chevron Beads:
Chevron beads, also known as Star Beads or Rosetta Beads, were invented by Maria Barovier in the late 1400s on the island of Murano, Italy. While Venetian bead-making techniques often draw from ancient methods, the Chevron technique is uniquely Venetian. Chevrons have been discovered in layers up to ten, with blue being the most common color. However, red, green, and black Chevrons are considered rare. The Chevron technique was later adopted in the Netherlands. The term "Chevron" refers to the bead's characteristic zigzag pattern.
