Thank you for viewing. This is an antique, large, circular, articulated hairpin featuring a design of waves and plovers in enamel. Waves and plovers have been cherished as auspicious motifs since ancient times. The image of plovers flying over rough waves represents "marital harmony" and "family safety," and also carries the meaning of good luck and achieving goals, as "chidori (plovers) = sen-dori (a thousand takes/wins)." The enamel coloring vividly expresses the movement of the waves and the flapping of the plovers' wings, adding to the splendor. The articulated craftsmanship allows the expression to change with movement, making it a piece with a deep sense of charm. It has a unique antique flavor and is recommended as a collectible item. #koudo #香堂 #こうどう japanese kimono jewelry kanzashi hairpin #kimono #kimono #visitingkimono #furisode #iromuji #tomesode #tsukesage #komon #tsumugi #yukata #summerkimono #waso #kimonocoordinate #kimonolover #kimonogirl #kimonoboy #kiminobeginner #wafuku #wasocoordinate #recycledkimono #antiquekimono #taishoroman #showaretro #oldcloth #wamodan #kimonoremake #hairornament #wasoaccessories #waso hair #wasohairornament #yukatahair #kimonohair #wagami #nihongami #antiquekanzashi #traditionalcrafts #craftsmanship #wakomono #edocraft #obi-dome #obi-dome #wasoaccessories #kimonocoordinate #obimawari #wasostyle #antiqueobi-dome #obijime #wasofashion #kimonolovers
