Vintage Copper Leaf Barrette Hair Clip Etched Flame Patina French Made in France
Beautiful vintage leaf / oval-shaped hair barrette crafted from copper. The surface is etched with fine leaf-vein detailing and finished with a heat-treated flame patina, giving it swirls of gold, blue, and purple that shift with the light — a technique that can’t be replicated with paint or dye. The clip mechanism is a genuine French auto-lock barrette back, stamped “MADE IN FRANCE.” This classic two-piece clip design is no longer manufactured, since the original French factory has closed, making the hardware itself increasingly hard to find.
