Peony Headpiece
Peony Headpiece
A luxurious blush pink peony blossom, framed on either side by golden sprigs of ivy leaves, forms the focal point of this couture bridal headpiece. Each flower petal and leaf was crafted by hand in our studio, making it a truly unique and heirloom-quality design. A versatile style, the Peony Headpiece can be worn multiple ways--adorning the back of a chignon, worn on one side to frame the face, or even styled as a tiara.
In the Victorian language of flowers, peonies symbolized romance and a happy marriage. Ivy symbolized wedded love and affection.
