The Details

Material & Quality

Material: Natural Burmese Jadeite (Type A)
100% Natural — Untreated, No Filling, No Dye

Item Type: Hand-Carved Jadeite Lotus Hairpin (莲花簪)

Color Tone: Soft Moonlight White

This elegant jadeite hairpin is hand-carved from natural Burmese jadeite, featuring a beautiful soft moonlight-white color with a clean and understated appearance.

The jadeite has a fine glutinous to glutinous texture (细糯至糯化), with a smooth, soft luster and gentle translucency. Under natural light, the jade has a subtle watery glow that gives it a quiet, luminous quality reminiscent of moonlight.

The overall color is predominantly a soft, clean white. Its beauty comes from the delicate texture, gentle translucency, and beautifully polished surface rather than strong color contrast.

No visible structural cracks or fractures affecting durability.

Craftsmanship & Design

This piece is entirely hand-carved in the form of a traditional Chinese lotus hairpin .

The lotus ornament features double-sided three-dimensional carving, with both sides carefully sculpted to create depth and dimension. The layered lotus petals and flowing contours are not simply engraved onto a flat surface; they are individually shaped to give the motif a naturally sculptural appearance.

One of the most distinctive details is the hand-carved teardrop-shaped loop incorporated into the carving.

The teardrop loop is carved directly from the jadeite itself and forms an elegant continuation of the main carving. This delicate detail adds movement and visual interest while preserving the completely jade-carved construction of the hairpin.

The long, slender pin has a graceful, gently curved silhouette with a tapered tip. Its simple elongated form creates a beautiful contrast with the more intricate three-dimensional lotus carving at the top.

The combination of moonlight-white jadeite, softly translucent texture, dimensional lotus carving, and the hand-carved teardrop loop gives this piece a particularly refined and elegant appearance.

Aesthetic & Symbolism

The lotus is one of the most enduring motifs in traditional eastern art and culture, symbolizing purity, elegance, harmony, and graceful beauty.

Jade hairpins have traditionally been associated with femininity, refinement, and elegance. The soft white color of this piece gives the lotus motif an especially serene and timeless character.

Rather than relying on vivid color, this hairpin is all about the quiet beauty of white jade — soft, luminous, understated, and elegant.

The double-sided three-dimensional carving allows the lotus to remain visually rich from different angles, while the small hand-carved teardrop loop adds an especially delicate finishing touch.
