Description
This single hairpin is based on the traditional flat hairpin, but has a modern design with an openwork pattern of chrysanthemum motif.
A flat kanzashi is a hairpin with an earpick-shaped base and a flat circular ornament. The ornament features an openwork pattern based on the traditional Japanese chrysanthemum crest. The carefully crafted crest has a thick outline, making it a simple yet striking flat kanzashi. The front and back have a matte finish that exudes warmth. The sides are polished to a glossy finish, adding texture to the finish.
Designer's thoughts
This traditional flat hairpin features a traditional floral family crest. The chrysanthemum is often considered the national flower and a symbol of nobility. It is based on the chrysanthemum crest, beloved since ancient times and used as the family crest of the Imperial family. The handle is engraved with a pattern reminiscent of a vine. The slightly shorter handle makes this hairpin perfect for quickly tying up short hair or adding just a little more volume.

| 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. |
