If you've watched Peking opera, you'd recognise ancient Chinese imperial headdress as headache-inducing helmet-like things that are elaborately decorated with gold filigree, motifs and tassles. But if I recall correctly from watching Hong Kong TVB period dramas, there was also one type of headdress worn by emperors from the Han Dynasty that went easy on the details (
I found this photo on Wikipedia).
It looks like a graduation mortar board perched on top the emperor's top knot and had a curtain of beaded tassled dangling at the back and front. This latest earring design of mine is an updated take of that headdress, created with a lattice of faux and real crystal beads individually hooked together and red glass pearls.
