Peacock Eye Feather Barrette, Diamond Shape, Resin-Sealed, Handcrafted Hair Clip with Gold Edge

Clip it into a low bun before dinner. Let the iridescence catch the light across a crowded room. Wear it with dark hair, light hair, thick hair, fine hair. The kind of piece that gets noticed without asking to be.

This peacock feather barrette is built on a diamond-shaped base of molded natural fiber, rigid and lightweight, with a real peacock eye feather sealed under a clear resin finish. The edges are hand-painted in gold. The back carries a standard French barrette clasp in silver-tone metal, sized for a secure hold.

The color of the feather shifts between cobalt blue, deep teal, and emerald green depending on angle and light. That is not a dye or a print. It is the natural iridescence of the feather itself, preserved under the resin seal.

Why It Stands Out

  • Real peacock eye feather, naturally molted
  • Molded natural fiber base, rigid and lightweight
  • Resin-sealed surface preserving the feather's natural iridescence
  • Hand-applied gold paint along all edges
  • French barrette clasp, silver-tone metal
  • Handmade in Indonesia
  • Each piece varies slightly in feather placement, color intensity, and edge texture. No two identical

Styles

Available in three configurations. Each uses the same diamond form, same materials, same clasp. The difference is in the feather arrangement.

Single Eye: One peacock eye centered in the diamond. Clean and minimal. The eye sits alone against the dark fiber base, drawing focus because nothing competes with it.

Double Eye Stacked: Two peacock eyes aligned vertically along the feather shaft, one above center, one below. More presence within the same form. A fuller look for thicker hair or bolder styling.

Double Eye Wide: Two peacock eyes spanning the full width of the diamond. The feather fills the frame. The most dramatic of the three styles.

Specifications

  • Origin: Indonesia
  • Material: Real peacock eye feather on molded natural fiber base
  • Finish: Resin-sealed surface, hand-painted gold edges
  • Shape: Diamond (rhombus)
  • Clasp: French barrette, silver-tone metal, approximately 60 to 70mm
  • Feather color: Cobalt blue, teal, emerald green (natural iridescence, varies by angle)

How to Wear It

Pin it into a low bun, a half-up style, or use it to pull hair back at the temple. The diamond shape sits well in vertical or angled positions. The lightweight build means it holds without pulling or sliding. Works with casual and evening wear.

Texture and Construction

The base has a rough, organic texture from the molded natural fiber. The feather sits flush against the surface, sealed under a smooth resin coat that gives the front face a slight gloss. The gold edge is painted by hand, slightly irregular, with visible brush marks that confirm the handmade construction.

Care

Keep away from water and prolonged direct sunlight. The resin seal protects the feather but will wear with sustained exposure over time. Store flat or in a soft pouch to protect the edges and clasp.

Handmade by Indonesian Artisans

Each barrette is assembled by hand in Indonesia using real peacock feathers, natural fiber, resin, and gold paint. Small variations in feather placement, edge texture, and color intensity are signatures of handmade work and make every piece unique. Limited quantity available through fromtheandes.net.
