Japanese Doll Kanzashi Now Available To Order!
To order, or if you have any questions, please email me - Dan@WideEyedGirls.com
Kanzashi (hair ornaments) as traditionally worn by brides, Geisha, Oiran & Maiko are nigh on impossible to find and purchase outside Japan, so I'm thrilled to be able to offer them to people who don't speak/write Japanese. Many of the kanzashi come in various sizes and so there's something for every size doll - Barbie, Super Dollfie, Tyler, Sydney, Fashion Royalty, Jenny, Licca, BJDs, Blythe etc.
Please note - Some of the pictures are from the supplier and are the best that I could get - my apologies. I will continually update the site with my own pictures as and when I receive items.With 16" Doll & Super Dollfie sized pieces, I'm assuming that oftentimes there are more flowers, or the "carving" is more intricate, rather than just being larger sizes, though I do not guarantee that until I see the items in person. All sizing is approximate (except when actual cm/mm measurements are given) and what may work to one person's eye may not work to another's, in as far as scale, thus they are only meant as guidelines.
Orders under $40 are to be paid in full ahead of time. For orders over $40, a 50% deposit is required for, with the balance plus shipping due upon my receiving the goods.I aim to place the order by April 12th and it takes about a week to get to me here in San Francisco. Shipping is a flat rate of $6.50 in a priority mail box - insurance is extra should you desire it. Orders over $100 ship free!
Here's a couple of dolls I have created using these kanzashi, to give you an idea of how they look on an actual doll.
Bira Bira
These are the metal flutter dangles. The 3-dangle size is perfect for Barbie & Jenny, whilst the 5-dangle is a tad large, though it can work. 7, 10 & 15 dangles are availabvle & obviously suited for larger dolls such as Tonner & Duper Dollfie.
3 Dangles ('Dangle' length 1.8cm) - $2 each
5 Dangles ('Dangle' length 2.1cm) - $3 each
7 Dangles ('Dangle' length 2.5cm) - $4 each

These are flower & butterfly shapes created with small squares of silk that are folded into 'petal' shapes. They come with a 'bira bira' flutter attached, but I have successfully removed that part.
