Occasion
A wedding day where the hair has to stay through three rooms. An anniversary dinner. The piece that finishes the back of the head when the camera turns around.
See the details.
Cherry trees flower for a week in early April across Korea and every photograph of those weeks goes into a family album. The blossom is a public symbol of the moment that does not last. Korean hair ornament tradition is older than the blossom motif but the two have met often. A piece shaped as a branch carries the season into the room.
Gold-tone metal with enamel blossoms set along the curve of the branch. The spring-clip at the back grips a section of hair without pulling and holds through the day. The branch shape is detailed enough to read at the back of the head and small enough to slide into an updo without disturbing the shape underneath.
