This is an antique Japanese Hirauchi Kanzashi featuring a traditional ivy (Tsuta) crest motif.
In Japanese symbolism, ivy is associated with meanings such as sincerity, lasting love, and strong bonds.
The pin is shorter than many traditional Kanzashi, making it easy to insert into the hair as a subtle decorative accent.
It is suitable for traditional Japanese hairstyles and kimono, as well as modern Western-style hair arrangements.
