Made by Navajo artisan "ALBERT BIGHAND" who gives us traditionally made Navajo jewelry that will always have an undeniable Navajo look.

Albert shows the years he's put in as a skilled metalsmith that are clearly validated in this piece! The barrette shows his technical skills that compliment his artistic skills. Made in concho design,this sterling stick barrette is beautifully tooled in it's entirety & is domed in shape, so it will cup the hair & depending on how much hair or the density of your hair,will determine how much you can put in there.

The 'stick' too is domed & not only is it a well designed stick,but what I find impressive is how he thought about putting the ridges in the stick portion which should help with finer hair. The 19 mm round tip acts as a stopper & prevents this part from sliding through. There is about a 3/8" open area from the backside of concho to the top of the stick (this is the area that will determines the amount of hair that will fit)..The finer the hair,the more..The thicker your hair is, then this will only hold so much of your hair. See all photos since they play a role to my description.

This will complete your Navajo/Southwestern Jewelry Collection!!
