A lacy, domed hair pin with a vintage feel. Open filigree of curling leaves and scrolls rises into a gentle dome, rings of tiny granule dots surround the middle, and one small round stone sits at the very centre.
Because the filigree is open, light passes through it and the dome looks delicate and airy. The single stone adds a hint of colour without taking over. Two long straight prongs slide into a bun. It weighs about 12 g.
Filigree domes like this recall antique European and Mughal silverwork. The oxidised finish deepens the shadows in the lace so every leaf stands out.
Wear it in a low bun with a printed saree, a linen kurta or a vintage-style dress. Black is subtle and elegant; green, blue and aqua add a small spot of colour.
The lacy dome is delicate and detailed, perfect for anyone who loves vintage silver.
The stone colour is the only thing that changes, so pick the one that suits the outfit you will wear most often. Black is the most versatile, matching monochrome looks, denim and every printed outfit. Green is the festive classic, made for red, mustard, maroon and gold-bordered silks. Blue is deep and regal, striking with white, pink, mustard and silver-grey. Mint is fresh and summery, beautiful with white, peach, lilac and light blue. Aqua is bright and cheerful, great with white, coral, navy and yellow. If you are unsure, choose a shade that already appears in your favourite dupatta or saree border.
A neat bun shows the pin best, but it also works on a messy bun, a twisted chignon or a braided bun. Make the base first and make it firm, then add the pin last, pushing it in from above so the decoration rests on top. To take it out, slide it back the way it went in rather than pulling it straight up, so it does not catch strands of hair. With a little practice it takes less than a minute.
Slide the pin into a firm bun, braid or gathered section of hair, from the side the decoration should face, so the prongs hide inside the hair and only the decorated head shows. It sits exactly as in the photos.
Make it the last thing you put in your hair and the first thing you take out. A soft, dry brush or cloth is enough to clean the carved details. Keep it in a closed box with a silica gel sachet during the monsoon, and it will keep its look for many seasons.
