This head jewelry is created by arranging Japanese traditional techniques, Tsumami-zaiku and Mizuhiki-zaiku with Swarovski crystal. The inspiration of wedding cakes and beautiful decorative cakes bring up the idea of Mizuhiki that plays an important role in Japanese culture as a symbol of affection, warmth, and togetherness. Mizuhiki knots are closely associated with the Japanese word MUSUBI (meaning Connection or Tying) because tying a Mizuhiki knot connects people and ties them together.
