Functional beauty, quality craftsmanship

Or should I say, crafts-woman-ship? ;) These clips are large, high quality, sturdy French-style metal barrette clips with tension bar. The leather is very securely attached to the clip with metal rivets that will be nearly impossible to remove.

HOW IT HELPS THE ENVIRONMENT

Production of new leather creates 17kg of carbon per square meter. Using upcycled leather scraps does not require new production and saves carbon! It's as simple as that! Plus, the natural and homemade dye used in the production of these barrettes does not require any manufacturing or release any chemicals into the air! As a bonus, the package is made from zero-waste paper and it is shipped in upcycled mailing envelopes. This item is green in every way that it can be!
