| I hand carve this 4 1/2" inch long, 6 prong comb from premium Great Lakes Birdseye Maple packed with tons of beautiful swirling eyes. The shimmering birdseye maple is the perfect accent for the centerpiece of this hair comb - a Gorgeous big and beautiful handcrafted sterling silver hibiscus flower. The petals of the flower are 5 stunning hand cut and shaped genuine Baltic amber cabochons. The cabochons are all dome-cut and the inclusions in the amber really sparkle when the light passes through them - Gorgeous!
Amber has been a signature part of our luxury hair jewelry collections for many years. Don't be fooled by imitations. All the amber used in our pieces is 30-90 million year old natural Baltic amber certified by the international amber Association. A certificate of amber authenticity can be include with this comb at your request.
Of all the "exotic" domestic hardwoods, bird's-eye maple (Acer saccharum) is perhaps the most highly prized, for it's distinctive clusters of "bird's eyes," those shimmering little bubbles of convoluted grain, often accompanied by satiny swirling grain or quilted figure. Few woods in the world are as dramatic, unique or sought after.
Many states in the Northeastern and North Central U.S. produce bird's-eye maple, but the best, finest textured wood comes from right here, in pristine Northern Michigan, where the climate and the soil provide ideal growing conditions for this rare and valuable timber. So, that's what you're getting when you buy my Birdseye hair jewelry - only the best! |
