Wonderful!
What a stunner this is - especially the DESIGN (and its execution).
I have not seen the silver handled this way before. I got most of these to use but I also was looking at things that had unusual workmanship. When i was buying these in China at the time , hair sticks and hair ornaments were plentiful as no one used them, but still there were types that were more common and so I did sell a number of the redundant ones i had already. I have many still to post of differing groups of Chinese minority too.
Well - you were certainly very wise to buy this one, and would also be wise to keep it, I feel. I say this even though I love it myself.
