The blessings of the earth and sea are in your hair - Rainbow Stone x Akoya Pearl Hair Ornament "Echoes"
It's the season when spring rains fall and moisten the ground.
At this time of year, when there are many signs of new buds sprouting, my thoughts suddenly turned to a stone I encountered in Nanjing, China - Rain Flower Stone.
A natural stone that has been nurtured deep within the earth for over 3 million years.
When wet with rain, its mysterious beauty emerges even more vividly.
Although it is made of stone, it looks like a work of art painted by nature itself.
At Orinuva, we combine this rainbow stone with Akoya pearls from Ise-Shima, a gift from the sea. I created a hair accessory that combines Japanese vintage pearls .
-The miracle stone "Rain Flower Stone" tells the memories of the earth-
Rain flower stone is a rare natural stone that is only found in Nanjing, China.
The beautiful stripes were carved into the rock over a long period of time through volcanic activity and crustal movements.
The name comes from a legend that once when a high priest was giving a sermon, flowers fell from the sky.
This stone, whose name means "rain" and "flower," has been treasured since ancient times as a symbol of blessings and beauty.
Each piece has a different expression, truly "one of a kind stone in the world."
"Rain Flower Stone" was purchased directly by the designer in Nanjing.
The fun of choosing is also one of the charms of Amehanaseki.
- A quiet radiance where the sea and the land resonate together -
This hair accessory includes rainbow stones,
It is adorned with Akoya pearls from Ise-Shima .
Pearls grow slowly in the rich ocean,
It gives off a soft luster and elegant shine that seems to embody the natural fluctuations of nature.
Its quiet and understated presence enhances a gentle outfit that makes you feel the blessings of nature.
-Lingering vintage pearls-
Vintage pearls manufactured in Japan are used as an accent.
It was exported to Europe and the US in the 1960s and was used in costume jewelry.
We use deadstock pearls that give you a sense of the technology and texture of the time.
Its attractive colors and luster are no longer produced, and it adds a warm look to hair accessories.
The overlapping of each material gives depth and profundity to your outfit.
-The thoughts behind the design of "Echoes"-
The "Echoes" we are introducing this time comes in two designs.
・A hairpin with five rainbow stones arranged in a U shape
・A hair comb with three rainbow stones
Both pieces were created with the image of the cycle of nature and the story of connected life .
Simply add it to your tied up hair for a silhouette that suits both Japanese and Western styles.
It is recommended for both formal occasions and everyday wear that gives a natural feel.
-Also a great gift for someone special-
This stone, named after rain and flowers, also has the meaning of "forming connections."
I'm sure it will be a memorable gift for someone celebrating a milestone in their life.
・Birthdays, Coming of Age Day, Mother's Day
- For special days in life such as graduations, entrance ceremonies, and weddings
・To commemorate a milestone for yourself

The beauty that truly resides in nature.
Like listening to the rain - a piece that quietly, but surely, adds to your individuality.
