Designer's comments :

"Visually, I designed this to be simply the most stunning exotic-flower-comment a girl could wish to put in her hair. Not for the faint of heart, this is not so much a conversation piece as a conversation stopper! This will go well in any hair coloring and includes five orchids of four different colors. A wonderful outdoor summer piece, it is also as much a scene stealer at both the smartest and the most informal of indoor winter party occasions. It is something to which everything else will become an accessory rather than being an accessory in itself."

"Practically, the size of the wooden background is sufficient to grip with either hand or fingers without risking damage to the flowers, when handling from the back of one's head out of view."

Size : 12 cm long (4.7") with 7 cm grip (approx 3"). Flowers approx. 7 cm (approx. 2.75") wide.

Colors: Any combination of colors can achieve this effect. The flowers shown here are Purple, Lavender and Ivory. These colors look exceptional against the color of the wood, which in this picture is Cherry, but can be darker in Ebony, or lighter in Maple.
