■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ ★ Handmade earrings created with mizuhiki (decorative paper cords). These earrings feature ume-musubi (plum blossom knots) made with three strands, connected to pearl beads with flower-shaped bead caps above and below. ★ Vivid pink mizuhiki is used for the outline, and a gorgeous ume-musubi is created with pale pink and gold mizuhiki. ★ The overall design sparkles, making it perfect for parties and other special occasions. ⚫ Mizuhiki has many different knotting styles, each with its own meaning. 【Ume-musubi (Plum Blossom Knot)】 ★ Ume-musubi, which is difficult to untie once knotted, represents strong bonds between people. ★ Since the plum blossom is a flower that heralds spring, it also carries the wish for improved luck and good health. ⚫ Mizuhiki is meant to ward off evil spirits, stemming from the consideration that they should not attach to gifts. It also means to connect people. Because mizuhiki cannot be easily untied, it is considered auspicious as it strengthens the bonds between people, and has been cherished as a traditional Japanese craft for a long time. 【Materials】: Iida Mizuhiki • Colored mizuhiki, silk-wrapped mizuhiki, • Hana mizuhiki (flower mizuhiki), Tokko mizuhiki (special light mizuhiki), • Hagoromo mizuhiki (feather robe mizuhiki) 【Size】: Approximately 4cm in total length ※ Please refer to image 6 ※ The metal parts contain multiple materials.
