Please be sure to read the profile before commenting or purchasing. I am selling these items to organize my collection. I purchased this item and then polished it beautifully and displayed it for viewing. A hairpin with a striking glaze color. It is colorful while featuring the refined quality based on traditional Japanese colors. The large bead, approximately 2.2cm (with some variation), is a ceramic bead coated with glaze. It's not a sharp, so-called vivid purple, but a soft color. Edo purple. The actual item is a slightly lighter purple than the color in the images. There are comparison images with other items of different colors. Please check image 4. Ceramic glaze is a glassy layer that covers the surface and serves to enhance waterproofing, protection, and decorative effects. 【Waterproof and Protective】 The glaze prevents water and dirt from seeping in and protects against scratches and stains. 【Decorative】 It creates various colors, luster, and textures, resulting in a beautiful finish. 【Texture】 The glazed part has a smooth, glassy surface. #yuriko hairpin #yuriko hair accessories
