Myrtle Hair Chain
Myrtle Hair Chain
Small bouquets of handcrafted myrtle flowers are joined together with a double strand of delicate, hand-wired chains on this romantic bridal headpiece. The flexible chains, inspired by gypsophila (baby’s breath) blossoms, are fashioned from dozens of pearl-dotted links. The Myrtle Hair Chain is a versatile design that can be styled a variety of ways: from forehead band to a graceful accent to a bridal updo.
In the Victorian language of flowers, myrtle flowers were a symbol of marriage, while gypsophila was an emblem of everlasting love.
