[Art of Nature] Hand-carved peach wood hairpin with dancing roses
The most notable feature of this hairpin is the three-dimensional rose decoration intricately carved by artisans from a single piece of wood. By applying different angles of carving to each petal, it expresses a "living rose" that changes its appearance depending on the way light hits it.
Combining the traditional "in-koku" technique with a modern design sensibility, this piece is designed to create a soft, blooming rose silhouette at the back of the head when inserted into the hair. Despite its lightweight design of only 35g, the angle of the hairpin's tip is adjusted to 58 degrees to ensure a secure hold even for those with thick hair.
The material is carefully selected from peach trees that are over 30 years old. By using high-quality wood that has undergone natural drying for 3 years, it possesses characteristics that make it resistant to cracking and warping. The floral parts are coated with layers of beeswax, resulting in a finish that deepens with age. This piece embodies classical beauty that complements traditional attire such as cheongsams and Hanfu, while also seamlessly matching with everyday tops, achieving a perfect balance of modernity and tradition.
Care is as simple as applying olive oil once a year with a soft cloth. It has gained popularity as a "lifetime item" that can be used across generations, making it a popular choice for decorations at coming-of-age ceremonies and weddings.
