When I saw this gorgeous piece of Cedar in my wood collection, inspiration hit me and I was absolutely driven to create this barrette! The center of the barrette is a STUNNING piece of Aromatic Cedar with a beautiful knot that appears as a sun rising, just peeking over the horizon. I surrounded it with pieces of very Curly Eucalyptus to mimic the sun's rays! I think it turned out wonderfully! (The photo shows both sides of the barrette). The barrette is backed by the highest quality "Made in France" metal clip, which is approximately three and three-quarter inches long. Total length of the barrette is about four and one-quarter inches. Curved for comfort: heirloom quality. This barrette is engraved on the back with my signature/artist's mark.
