Keep it long, treasure it long.

Rough and cool hair style

Since accessories are items for decorating, I think that the most important thing is to look nice. However, in this era of overflowing things, it is no longer enough to just choose one from a variety of choices for visual reasons. What kind of material, what kind of person is making it, what kind of thought is put in there, why the maker wanted to make it are some facts that makes something so special which differs from any another. People are aware that it will change into something new.
We will introduce an accessory brand, MACHETE, which has such feelings in its items.

Useful, mini hair clips

Mini Claw is a hair clip. It is also called a crocodile clip, but it is officially called a vance clip. There is a hinge in the center, and it opens symmetrically and uses it to set up hair. Because it is a mini size, it can be used when half-up, or when gathering hair with hair rubber, rather than gathering all the hair together.

Cellulose acetate made from plant fiber is excellent in transparency and has the advantage of being hard to break and hard to break due to its sticky characteristics. It is said to be a “plastic jewel” because a deep and beautiful color is born.

In addition to the base color, other colors can be used to create a marble-like design, or gradations can be created in light shades, so there are various ways in which colors and designs come out. Please enjoy it as a feature of cellulose acetate.

Thinking the load on the environment and animals

Whether it is a single color or a marble-like pattern, the beautiful French clip material uses cellulose acetate from Italy. At present, we only see petroleum resins, but the ancestors of the resins were made from plants. The challenge to synthetic resin that began about 200 years ago. An artificial ivory made from cellulose (cotton) was invented, and this was called the world's first resin. In this way, “acetate” is originally made from plant fiber, and even if it is called “resin”, acetate is not a chemical fiber but a plant fiber made from cotton and high-purity pulp. Because it is a plant fiber, it is the same organic substance as humans, so it is gentle to the skin, has little allergies, and is warm even when touched directly.

Jewelry that has been loved for a long time

MACHETE is an accessory brand established in 2017 in the United States by designer Jennifer Matchet. After earning a degree in art history in Gainesville, Florida, Jennifer was inspired by a collection of antique and vintage jewelry and began designing accessories himself.

Herself prefers tortoiseshell accessories that are simple and classic materials, but there are also regulations for the protection of sea turtles, and the environmental impact is serious, so choosing tortoiseshell itself is not ethical Thinking about making other materials that are close to that was the reason why I started using cellulose acetate, the iconic material of the brand.

MACHETE accessories are for everyday use. Casual, colorful and fun. Would you like to go out wearing MACHETE's Mini claw as if you wished for that every day?
