Rare Japanese Kanzashi Set Maiko January Tsumami Style Original Box Auction JP M15

Rare Authentic 1970s Japanese Kanzashi Set – Original Box Included
Direct from a Japan government auction, this beautiful vintage kanzashi (簪) set captures the charm of traditional Japanese hair fashion. Not made from plastic, it is crafted with the fine materials and detailing typical of the Showa-era 1970s.

About Kanzashi
Kanzashi are traditional Japanese hair ornaments used in various styles from the Edo period to modern day. This set reflects the January tsumami kanzashi style worn by maiko (apprentice geisha) for the New Year, a time of bright colors and seasonal motifs.

This Set Includes:
Kanzashi Hairpins: Long decorative pins featuring intricate floral and bird designs.
Kushi Comb: Rounded, likely lacquered wood or tortoiseshell-style comb for bun-style hairdos.
Kogai Hairpins: Two-piece sheath-style pins, traditionally paired with the kushi comb.

Cultural Significance
Kanzashi gained prominence during the Edo period as hairstyles became more elaborate. Today, they are still worn with formal kimono for weddings, tea ceremonies, and festivals. This 1970s set is a perfect fusion of traditional beauty and mid-century Japanese craftsmanship.

Condition
Beautifully preserved with only minimal signs of use. The original box shows natural aging from careful storage.
