The beautiful warm brown and amber tones prove flattering on a variety of different hair tones. Originally, genuine tortoise shell was used for diversity in accessories, despite its expense to obtain. In 1973, the world-wide trade of tortoise shell was banned. From then on, ‘tortoise shell’ for accessories were manufactured from synthetic materials, such as acetate. Although its material changed, the popularity of tortoiseshell continues with all the major designers.
