Atelier Line

Each piece in the Atelier Line is a celebration of heritage manufacturing, born in small-batch workshops in France and Italy, where bio-acetate is hand-carved and barrel-polished for days to achieve a seamless, silk finish. These are not merely accessories, but sculptural objects intended to be worn as jewelry for the hair. The Atelier Line represents the highest expression of our commitment to slow fashion and artisanal excellence.

What makes the Atelier Line different from the Studio Line?

The Atelier Line is our premium, small-batch collection. Each clip is handmade using Italian Mazzucchelli acetate by Deliska-H — a heritage atelier in Tourrettes-sur-Loup in the south of France. The patterns are richer and more varied, the silhouettes are larger, and each piece is a sculptural object as much as a functional tool.

What is Mazzucchelli acetate?

Mazzucchelli is an Italian manufacturer renowned for producing the world's finest cellulose acetate — the same material trusted by luxury eyewear and accessory houses. It is plant-derived, biodegradable, and known for its depth of colour, natural translucency, and one-of-a-kind patterning. No two pieces are exactly alike.

What colours are the Atelier clips available in?

The Darcy 12 is available in Appaloosa (a speckled, organic pattern), Maple (a warm, layered amber), and Oyster (a soft, pearlescent neutral). The Juliet 10 is available in Maple, Oyster, and Tortoise (a classic, richly marbled pattern).

Who should choose the Darcy 12 vs. the Juliet 10?

The Darcy 12 is our largest clip at 11.5 cm — designed for thick to very long hair that needs maximum hold. The Juliet 10 is 10 cm and offers a secure hold for medium to long hair with a slightly more refined, everyday profile. If you have thick or very long hair, Darcy is your piece. For most other hair types, Juliet is the perfect balance of presence and versatility.

What is the Boar Hair Brush Kit?

A complete ritual tool for scalp stimulation and natural shine, produced by Koh-I-Noor in Milan — a family-run house with over a century of brush-making heritage. Each brush is shaped from certified biodegradable acetate and finished by hand. The kit includes a boar and nylon pin brush, a cleaning rake, and a drawstring bag. Available in Cream and Neptune.

How do I clean my Boar Hair Brush?

Use the included cleaning rake to gently remove hair and buildup from the bristles once a week. For a deeper clean, rinse the bristles — not the acetate handle — under lukewarm water with a small amount of gentle shampoo, then lay the brush bristle-side down on a towel to air dry. Avoid submerging the handle.
