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.

Softly radiant and full of seasonal grace, this pair of vintage Japanese kanzashi hair pins celebrate the beauty of spring renewal. Each pin features layered petals in coral pink and golden yellow with lustrous pearl-like centers, framed by delicate gold leaves and pastel cord loops. The interplay of warm tones and shimmer reflects the early blossoms of March, when cherry trees first awaken. Graceful, balanced, and timelessly feminine.

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.
