Small Blush Silk Tassel with Star Knot Charm

About the Item

Chinese knotted tassels are used to add elegance to everyday items like hairpins or lanterns but they often hold sentimental value, and are passed down through families for generations. In ancient times lovers sometimes gave knots as tokens of their love. This small tassel is tied of a pale blush pink silk thread and decorated with a floral knot and a brown jade bead, carved as a star-shaped endless knot, a symbol of longevity and true love.
