A sun for your bun. The outer edge of this round hair pin is a border of open S-scrolls that curl out like rays, a plain domed ring sits inside it, and at the centre a cluster of round stones, one larger and a ring of smaller ones, is dotted with tiny silver granules.
The open scrolls let your hair show through, so the pin looks light even though it has plenty of detail. The stone cluster adds a pop of colour at the heart of the design. Two long straight prongs hold it in a bun. It weighs about 16 g.
Sun motifs and scrollwork are classic elements of tribal and Rajasthani silver. Combining them with coloured stones gives this pin a festive, slightly royal feel.
Wear it in a low bun with a cotton or silk saree, a chaniya choli for garba or a festive kurta. Green and red are perfect for festivals, white and black for an all-silver look, pastels for daytime functions.
The mix of open scrollwork and a jewelled centre makes it look detailed and handmade from every angle.
The stone colour is the only thing that changes, so pick the one that suits the outfit you will wear most often. Green is the festive classic, made for red, mustard, maroon and gold-bordered silks. Mint is fresh and summery, beautiful with white, peach, lilac and light blue. Black is the most versatile, matching monochrome looks, denim and every printed outfit. Baby Pink is soft and romantic, lovely with blush, ivory, grey and pastel outfits. Red is the bridal favourite, perfect with green, cream, gold and black. Blue is deep and regal, striking with white, pink, mustard and silver-grey. White gives a clear, kundan-like sparkle that goes with every colour. Aqua is bright and cheerful, great with white, coral, navy and yellow. Yellow is sunny and auspicious, ideal for haldi, Basant Panchami and pastel outfits. 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.
