Eva ,here the promised photo of my treasured hairpin. I think it can be seen how skillfull this hairpin has been executed. Backk and front are both the same.
Gr. Ingrid.
Thank you Ingrid! Wonderful!!!! One can see it better anyway, even though you say, the photo doesn't justify the work. it is a fantastic Beauty! Gorgeous Details, it is really the most beautiful hairpin I have ever seen (I mean on photos). One can without exageration talk of a real jewel and treasure. Do the ladies of today still wear such or similar (simpler) hairpins? You are right, this one is the star among them all!
Sarah, Thank you once again for featuring this treasure. It is a worthwhile item to get a place in the ranks. Gr. Ingrid.
Fantastic workmanship! I love it!
