What are the characteristics of female jewelry in Ming Dynasty, and what is the emphasis on hair style?

Compared with other dynasties' jewelry, women's jewelry in Ming Dynasty is more exquisite and follows the style of Song Dynasty at that time, but it also has its own characteristics, such as many pendants and hairpins hanging in the previous bun.

At that time, women in the Ming Dynasty tended to comb their hair in a flat round heart shape, while maids tended to comb it in a double bun. But Jiangnan women also like this hairstyle, so this hairstyle is more common in folk peony heads, which was first popular in the south and then gradually spread to the north. There were more hairstyles for women in Ming Dynasty, but she changed more on the basis of the original Song Dynasty.

Although the hair bun in Song Dynasty was used more, it was deformed at that time, so there were many different kinds of hair bun in Ming Dynasty, such as picking hair bun and peach hair bun, which all evolved on the basis of the hair bun in Ming Dynasty and Song Dynasty.

And the themes of these jewelry are very rich. In addition to the original animal and plant shapes, Buddhist and Taoist themes have also been added, which have been used in jewelry in the Ming Dynasty.
