samsara hairclip

This hair clip design is of a traditional knot motif that is also an auspicious crest. It has a meaning of continuous infinity that is symbolic of longevity, prosperity and fortune. In Tibetan Buddhism, it is said to be a cultural symbol representing reincarnation (samsara). The 2-dimensional iconography is translated into a 3-dimensional object with multiple lines that intertwine one another, accentuating the continuity of the symbol. We hope you will enjoy the intricacy and visual impact of the design. On the back of the item, we have added tiny claw-like parts to achieve better ‘cling’ to the hair when worn. The item looks great with a variety of fashion styles as well as the traditional Japanese kimono.
