This Roman hairpin made of polished bone is based on a 1st century find, now in the British Museum in London. It shows a finely crafted female bust with individual facial features - presumably a depiction of the original wearer or an idealized figure.
The figure wears a characteristic hair diadem, which exhibits typical features of the Flavian era and allows for a temporal classification in the late 1st century. Fine details such as suggested fabric folds give the depiction additional depth and expression.
Each hairpin is handcrafted and carefully finished, creating a unique piece with historical character and individual appeal.
Slight deviations are due to material and handmade craftsmanship and emphasize the uniqueness of each piece.
