This is a hand carved hairpin from Tampaksiring, Bali.
Beautifully made, this decorative hairpin looks very pretty on. The natural wood is variagated in colour and the top end has attached a lovely white flower, which has been made by hand using dyed goat leather! Each stick is quite unique! They give an elegant touch to your long hair when it is pinned up, and also make a wonderful gift for others. I like to use one stick to make my bun (see my instructions in my Guides).
This chopstick hairpin measures approx 4 cm in width at the end and 19.5 cm in length (usable length is 16.5 cm), weighing approx 9 g. It is made from dyed goat leather and Sono wood, a durable and sustainable hard wood which holds up well in moving to dry colder climates, and has beautiful markings. It is much more common than other tropical hardwoods of comparable beauty- some of which have been sadly overused and now have become rare. These are listed as multiple items, so may differ slightly being handmade from a natural material.
This product is made in Tampaksiring, a little town in the centre of Bali. We first spotted these lovely hairpins in Yogyakarta and bought some there, and by an amazing coincidence we met the maker while travelling home via Bali. We buy direct from the maker – resulting in fantastic prices for you!
