The Wade Barrette's lifelike appearance is no coincidence— the stamping was created using an actual mussel shell. Its brilliant 18-karat gold-plated surface highlights the textural details found in a natural seashell. Each barrette is made by hand in New York and complete with an automatic French barrette clasp for easy placement in the hair. Height: 3 1/8 inch Width: 1 3/8 inch Length: 2 3/8 inch
