This listing is for a traditional Japanese hair ornament called kanzashi.  Kanzashi is a generic term for a wide variety of these accessories - including long rigid hairpins, barrettes, fabric flowers, combs and fabric hair ties - which are worn in traditional Japanese hairstyles.

Vivid and full of fire, this trio of vintage Japanese kanzashi hair pins showcases the blaze of autumn in bloom. Each pin features petals of red and orange fabric with contrasting textures, accented by golden mizuhiki loops and sprigs of green and crimson. The interplay of fiery hues suggests turning maple leaves under the glow of festival lanterns. 

Functional and ornamental, these kanzashi hair pins are perfect for traditional wear with a kimono, especially during Shichi-Go-San, Coming of Age Day, or wedding ceremonies. They can also be worn without the kimono adding a unique vintage touch to any updo, bun or twist for your special event. See the video below for a stunning collection of antique and vintage kanzashi.
