Welcome to my shop! The Butterfly and The Snail fascinator is a truly unique creation, comprising a snail shell base, a fluttering handmade butterfly and finished with beautiful peacock sword feather and complementing turquoise and burgundy coq feathers.

The base of the fascinator is a teal piece of sinamay stitched to burgundy/wine coloured felt and then overstitched in an amazing swirl giving the effect of a snail shell. It is then decorated with a gorgeous burgundy machine embroidered butterfly which has been designed and handmade by me and then trimmed with tiny blue beads on the feathers. Each of the machine embroidered motifs is made individually and is a one off!

The design is then finished with a beautiful swirling peacock sword feather and fluttering coq feathers in burgundy and turquoise.

The structure is then secured by hand to a clear plastic comb.

The colour on the photographs is an accurate reflection of these two vibrant colours.

This is a real statement piece and looks amazing worn at the side of the head, or lower with a side bun or alternatively at the back of the hair if worn in a chignon. The fascinator is entirely sewn by hand and then hand finished, giving it a really secure and firm structure. It is a unique, one off item.

The snail base measures 8x7 cm, the butterfly measures 12x8 cm, the overall design including feathers measures roughly 19x17
This fascinator is for sale on Etsy for £40.00 plus p&p
