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.  Click here to learn more about the many forms of kanzashi.

A lively collection of eight traditional kanoko shibori hair ties crafted from vintage silk, designed to accent classic nihongami hairstyles with vibrant texture and color. Each piece showcases the signature puckered pattern, rendered in vivid shades of orange, pink, red, and lime green, some finished with tassel ends. Soft, springy, and full of character, they can be twisted or wrapped to complement traditional attire or add a pop of vintage flair to modern styling. 

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.
