Vintage white/blue/brown ceramic beads, white glass donut spacers, blue seed beads (18” necklace/earrings)

”Once again doth the Tongue of the Ancient of Days reveal, while in this Most Great Prison, these words which are recorded in this snow-white Scroll: O ye beloved of the one true God! Pass beyond the narrow retreats of your evil and corrupt desires and advance into the vast immensity of the realm of God, and abide ye in the meads of sanctity and of detachment, that the fragrance of your deeds may lead the whole of mankind to the ocean of God’s unfading glory.” —Baha’u’llah, Gleanings

The brown markings on these beads remind me of Persian calligraphy and the writing on the many Tablets penned by Baha’u’llah.
