The Gangster Geisha Series was fashioned after traditional Japanese Kanzashi worn by Geisha in training. Motifs of nature normally used were replaced by symbols of commerce by the artist.

These type of hair sticks are called Bira Bira because they have some element of movement. The dangles are each roughly 1.5” long.
