Also called talsok and tusok, Fantoche is a “U” shaped hair accessory. It is a silver clamp with small points.
Fantoches are usually decorated with gold, small pearls, or crystal. It is attached to the clamp with a spring that gives it a heart-shaped illusion.
Tinatawag din na talsok at tusok, ang Fantoche ay isang aksesorya pang-buhok na may hugis na “U”. Ito ay pilak na pang-ipit na may maliliit na tulis.
Ang mga Fantoche ay karaniwang may dekorasyon na ginto, malilit na perlas, o bubog. Idinudugtong ito sa pang-ipit gamit ang spring na nagbibigay rito ng ilusyon na hugis-puso.
