I have a hairpin I like alot, it's my favourit one and for some time now I been thinking that it would be great to have more hairpins/hairtuys in the same kind of style. :eyebrows:

It was bought 15 years ago, in a very small shop in Stockholm, that sold all kinds of thing.
I don't even remember the name of the store or the street, only in what part of the city the store was...
So I don't think that's the way to find some more hairpins like that.

But maybe someone here has an idea were there are hairtoys that looks like kind of this one? :idea: :cheese:

What I like about it is the wood, it's black all through and foremost it doesn't shed spliters, even if its not coted with something.
I like the sterling silver top, with it's semi precious stone, an amethyst.

So in short, what I like about the pin is that it's bare wood, it's silver details and it's semi precious stone. :cheese:

I also own several neckleces in sterling silver and semi precious stones and pearls, so it would be nice to also have hair pins that will also go with them.

Any suggestion where I can find hairpins/forks/hairtoys like that?
I really hope you can help me! :pray: :bowtome:
If there is a place that knows where to look, it must be LHC! :D

Best wishes, Maya

I forgot to say; if you click on the necklace-pic, you will be in an album with more pics of the necklaces, if you are intersted that is. :)

Just a start, but with prices like those you can't go wrong, I've bought from them before and they have great customer service, though shipping can be a bit long as they say, it wasn't for me...
