Double Gourd Hairpin
-
Description
Although eyes were certainly drawn to the high, fan-shaped headdresses that Qing-dynasty women affixed to back of their heads, it was the finishing touch of a hairpin or two that completed the look. This silver hairpin ends in a minuscule double-gourd, a symbol of health, longevity, and good luck.
