The Chinese have perfected the art of enameling metal beads in beautiful designs and vibrant colors. This enameling process is known as "cloisonne." Cloisonne has been used for centuries by jewelers to create their designs. The famous French jeweler Fabergé, who crafted the spectacular Fabergé Impearial Easter Eggs for the czars of Russia, used cloisonne extensively in his magnificent creations.
Can you smell the cherry blossoms and exotic, heady spices? Each hat pin is designed with a huge gorgeous red Chinese cloisonne bead adorned with pink cherry blossoms. Two genuine red mountain jade beads and a Swarovski Aurum bicone crystal, with a genuine 24kt. gold finish, as well as gold plated filigree bead caps and gold plated heishi beads, complete the jewelry design. This limited edition Waltzing Willow hat pin measures 5" from end to end. A clutch is included so the piece may be worn as a stick pin if desired. Asian elegance!
