Ming Dynasty Turquoise Floral Hairpin
$17.25
This “enameled” Ming-Qing Dynasty turquoise floral hairpin represents Hanfu Tale’s dedication to preserving intangible cultural heritage metalwork. Modeled after imperial court hairpins of the era, it employs a traditional enamel technique lost for nearly a century. Layered petals are meticulously outlined on a brass base, then filled with color and fired to achieve a warm peacock blue. Natural turquoise stones adorn the flower’s center, radiating classical elegance and nobility.
Materials: silver/gold plated alloy, imitation pearls, resin (for glossy effect)
Burnt Blue Enamel, also known as “Silver Blue” or “Enamel,” was an imperial metal craft exclusive to the Ming and Qing courts. Its production requires five core processes—“forming the base, coiling the wire, applying the enamel, firing, and polishing”—each demanding precise temperature control and exceptional technique. This artistry once faced near extinction. This floral hairpin continues the Ming and Qing dynasty tradition of “flower-tree” pinhead design, meticulously handcrafted by a master artisan with 15 years of expertise in Burnt Blue Enamel.
