The Nightowl Fork — Celtic Knotwork Owl Hair Pin

Some pins mark a page. This one marks a lineage.

The Nightowl Fork is a Celtic-knotwork owl worked in antique silver, wings spread wide across a spring-clip back — a companion piece to the Vault's Norse line, for anyone who wants to carry the old gods somewhere the eye lingers longest: the hair. The knotwork body is the owl; wings, breast, and talons are all one continuous interlace, the way the old carvers drew their creatures as a single unbroken line.

What you receive

• One Nightowl Fork hair clip in antique silver-tone alloy
• A sturdy spring-clip back built to hold a low bun, half-up twist, or gathered updo
• Finished on both sides — the reverse shows the same hand-tooled knotwork detailing as the front

How to wear it

Gather the hair you want held, position the fork so the owl faces outward, and press the clip closed. It holds securely through a full day of wear, and reads equally well for a Renaissance faire, a romantasy reading sprint, or an ordinary Tuesday that could use a little more Norse in it.

Care

Wipe clean with a soft dry cloth. Keep away from water and perfume to preserve the antique-silver finish, and store it flat when not in use.
