- Design: Three Crane Tsuru-Bira Kanzashi Hairpin
- Acquisition Date: Around 2000
Perhaps in the Reiwa era, it would look cool if a man wore it. I believe this Three Crane Kanzashi has a beautiful form that can withstand studio photography.
Also known as Chiri Kanzashi, the spring-like part at the base of the cranes subtly sways, making it an incredibly charming hairpin.
- This is a traditional kanzashi worn with stage wigs and traditional Japanese hairstyles, made with an old-fashioned shape and structure. It is highly unlikely to find one in unused condition again.
When wearing, insert it as an ornament after styling your hair.
It will break if used to hold hair in place.
The shape of the legs will also distort if force is applied.
This item was purchased and sold by Yamaguchi Co., Ltd. at the time. (Yamaguchi Co., Ltd. is the company that produced the Bira Kanzashi for the movie Sakuran and handled many Oiran hair ornaments.)
*Ships anonymously (YuYu Mercari/RakuRaku Mercari) with careful packaging. Recycled materials may be used for outer protection.
Three Plum Bira Kanzashi, Three Cherry Blossom Bira Kanzashi, One Crane Bira Kanzashi, and One Plum Bira Kanzashi are also available.
