Myth Reborn
Inspired by the classic esoteric symbol of the Orphic Egg from ancient Greek mythology, this hatpin embodies the symbolism of life and rebirth. The egg-shaped form, meticulously carved from oceanic stone, resembles a celestial planet suspended in the galaxy. Cradling it in your palm, you can almost feel the heartbeat of the universe.
A Nod to the "Hatpin Panic"
During the 1910s, women repurposed their hatpins as tools of self-defense, sparking the "Hatpin Panic" across the United States. This led to laws restricting hatpin lengths to under 9 inches (approx. 23 cm). With its slender 25-cm profile, this piece pays homage to that era when women used fashion to assert their independence. More than an accessory, it is a wearable artifact of history.
Golden Serpent & Mortise-Work
A serpent, cast in sterling silver and gilded using traditional techniques, coils around the egg. Through hand-polishing and precise mortise-inspired construction, each component fits seamlessly without the need for adhesives.
Graceful Resilience
The 59-copper pin is meticulously hand-polished thousands of times, resulting in a tip that is refined yet resilient—sharp enough to penetrate fabric but gentle on the skin. When needed, this elegant work of art transforms into a discreet guardian, embedding the philosophy of "elegant self-defense" into its very design.
Awaken the Spirit
Included with each piece is a special polishing cloth. As you gently clean, the friction between cloth and pin creates subtle vibrations, resonating through the oceanic stone and silver serpent like the whisper of a serpent's tongue—a private ritual that deepens your connection with the piece with every care.
Eternal Ascent
After numerous balance adjustments, an anti-roll design ensures the hatpin always returns to an upright position, serpent head raised. This embodies vibrant vitality and the eternal cycle of the cosmos, merging the aesthetics of dynamic balance within a static object.
