Soaking the rattan so it's easier--not easy, but easier--to slice by hand into very narrow strips, dying the fiber, then while it's still flexible weaving it into shapes. In this case two overlapping discs which are then woven together artfully to form a lovely barrette!

This style measures about 4.25"x 2.5". Made completely by hand.

Spring clip is attached to the back.
