Gold and Silver Leaf Japanese Paper Folded Crane and Small Pearl Posts/Clip-on Earrings | White

Delicate folded crane accessories that gently sway as if dancing by your ears, exuding a translucent elegance. Crafted from white Japanese paper with gold and silver leaf, these cranes are paired with soft, elegantly curved gold pieces and small pearls, creating a design that is both simple and gracefully radiant. Cranes have long been regarded as auspicious birds, symbolizing harmonious relationships and even serving as a connection to the celestial realm. Furthermore, folded cranes are imbued with various wishes, including those for longevity, happiness, protection from disaster, and recovery from illness. "May the crane that has alighted before you bring you an abundance of happiness and a bright future..." With such a prayer in our hearts, each crane is meticulously crafted into an accessory, one by one. To ensure the cranes can be worn subtly, they are created from Japanese paper cut to a small size of 2cm square. These are perfect not only when paired with kimonos or yukatas but also recommended for days when you wish to casually enjoy a touch of Japanese ambiance, such as at fireworks festivals or during a stroll through historic towns. They also complement festive occasions like Shichi-Go-San, Coming-of-Age ceremonies, and New Year celebrations. Some customers wear them daily, much like a personal talisman. The folded crane design, evoking a sense of Japaneseness, is highly appreciated both domestically and internationally. They make thoughtful gifts for those who love Japanese culture, frequently wear kimonos, or for friends residing overseas. To enhance durability and water resistance, the Japanese paper portions are coated multiple times with resin. This process results in a lustrous finish, offering an exquisite beauty akin to fine ceramics. Our standard gift wrapping is presentation-ready, perfect for gifting. Please inform us if your order is for a gift. We also offer complimentary message card writing services. We hope these small cranes bring smiles to many. ✼••┈┈••✼••┈┈••✼••┈┈••✼ [Post/Clip-on Earring Fittings] - Posts (with catches): Both the post and catch are made of surgical stainless steel 316.
