Our Hummingbird Beaded Hair Barrette is a stunning, handmade decorative hair accessory. The colors are assorted and always changing, ensuring you receive a unique and beautiful piece. If you have a color preference, let us know, and we'll do our best to match it.
This hair barrette features an intricate image of a hummingbird, complete with a stick to hold your hair in place. Each barrette is hand-strung and beaded by indigenous Guatemalan artisans from the rural areas near Lake Atitlan.
The hummingbird is meticulously hand-beaded using only first-class Czech beads and thread. Unlike weaving, which has been a part of Guatemalan culture since pre-Colombian times, bead work is a relatively new but highly cherished artisan craft in the region.
When you purchase this barrette, you are supporting products made under fair trade standards, empowering women to work from their homes while caring for their children. This unique hair accessory not only enhances your style but also contributes to a greater cause.
