Callistemon Hair Stick - Silver
Put some flowers in your hair. This sculptural hair stick makes a lovely addition to a bun or French twist and looks beautiful alone or doubled up. Versatile hair jewelry that elevates any look.
Cast in sterling silver using the lost-wax method, the hair stick begins as a wax model hand-carved at the bench. The form was inspired by the callistemon (also known as the bottlebrush), a shrub that grows all over Kirsten's San Francisco neighborhood. The bright fuchsia stamens and flowers are filled with pollen, drawing bees, butterflies and hummingbirds. The piece carries that botanical reference into silver, with black oxidation filling the recessed pod openings.
