Description
This silver hairpin is inspired by goldfish being transferred using a ladle.
The goldfish being carried to new water is depicted in silver along with the spilling water. Whether you're wearing a kimono or casual clothing, the swaying goldfish will create a cute, feminine look. Furthermore, the handle of the ladle that forms the shaft of the hairpin is crafted to resemble bamboo knots. The goldfish, a traditional motif of Kasuu Kobo, is expressed with special attention to detail.
Designer's thoughts
The most important thing was the handle, which is based on a bamboo ladle motif. We repeatedly reworked the bamboo's exquisite joints until we were satisfied with the shape. We also paid particular attention to the silhouette of the flowing water and the moving goldfish, which will add a sparkling touch to your hair.

| Shaft Features | Although it is made of brass, the stem is flat, so you need to be careful with the amount of force you use. If you use too much force, it may bend or break. For those with long or thick hair, it is recommended to insert it into a half-up style or tied up, or as a second hairpin for a hairstyle. For those with shorter hair, it can be inserted into braids, etc. |

*When using, please hold the shaft gently.
