Natural Dango Hairpin

Our last upload today from our 2010 collection are these natural dyed felt hairpins. 

Named after Japanese rice flour dumplings, these beautifully coloured hairpins are made up of two felted woolen balls that have been naturally dyed. Because the felting process uses an alkaline soap, we dyed pre-felted wool. Attached as decoration to a hairpin, they'll add a natural colour to compliment any of our garments.

The overall length of each hairpin is 6cm with felt balls averaging 1cm in diameter.
With five different colour combinations to choose from, these hairpins are beautifully simple.
