60mm Handmade Etched Copper Paw Print French Hair Barrette - Fur Babies Collection
Quick Facts: The copper plate is just shy of 3 inches long and a little more than 1 inch wide on a 60 mm nickle-plated, lead-free french barrette. (Other sizes are available by custom order!) The Story: Do you love animals? Do you ever feel like you have paw prints all over you, declaring your pet's claim on your heart? This is the one of Butterfly Sundries' exclusive Fur Babies Collection hair barrettes, created specifically to support the Spokane Humane Society. It was cut from copper sheet metal, filed, and cleaned. Then an ooak design was drawn by hand onto the surface before it was placed in the etching solution. Cleaned, painstakingly hammered into shape and work hardened by hand, it was then drilled and riveted onto a 60mm pre-fabricated french barrette mount (nickle plated and lead-free). Antiqued and polished, this hair clip has a rustic charm which will bring you joy for years to come! Copper does, of course, over time develop an attractive patina. This is part of the beauty of the material. The surface does have a thin protective layer of wax to protect it, but expect the beautiful patina to develop gradually. From beginning to end, this item is handmade with love... with all the attention you deserve! This item comes with a FREE white gift box, for your gift-giving pleasure! As always, 10% of the profits from the sale of this item go to support my Featured Charity!
