THE STORY BEHIND IT
Of the three marble hair pieces in this collection, this is the most sculptural. A slim tapered shaft rises into the head of a crested bird — a swept crest, a carved eye, a fine beak, and feather lines running down the neck into the shaft. All of it is cut from one piece of stone, which leaves the carver no room to correct a single stroke.
Carved entirely by hand from a single piece of pure white marble, the shaft tapers to a smooth point that slides through a bun without catching, while the bird's head sits proud of the hair and catches the light. In Indian art, birds have long been used as symbols of the soul, of grace, and of journeys both inner and outer — a meaning that travels beautifully into a modern wardrobe.
HOW TO STYLE IT
Twist your hair into a bun or a loose knot, push the stick through the base, and let the bird's head sit proud at the side. It holds thick hair that defeats most clips, and it turns a plain bun into the most noticeable thing you are wearing. A beautifully considered gift for anyone who loves jewellery that tells a story without saying a word.
Carved by hand in India.
