The headdress flower is jewelry developed from hairpin. It consists of a flower head and a pin. Because Manchu women's hair styles developed from soft-winged head to two fingers, then to shelf head, and finally produced big wings, the hair styles on their heads became wider and wider, so a headdress with a large coverage-Touhua was produced. Most headdresses are made of pearls and precious stones, so they need a stable support, that is, some corresponding changes have been made on the basis of hairpins. For example, a cross-shaped cross brace is welded at the top of the pin, and the cross-shaped cross is used as the main body of the headdress. Decorative flowers, branches and leaves, birds and animals, insects and butterflies, auspicious symbols and so on surround the main body. This mutual collocation not only makes the primary and secondary relationship of composition obvious, but also makes the headdress flower with treasures as raw materials share the load reasonably. When a Manchu woman combs her hair, she wears a big flower between her two heads, which is called a headdress. Some women will also choose two kinds of flowers with the same color and shape to be inserted at both ends of the two heads, commonly known as pressed hair flowers, also known as pressed temples.

Besides flags and hairpins, Manchu women generally like to decorate their hair with flowers. Wearing big flowers on the head has always been a traditional custom of Manchu. Pu Zhiyuan recorded in the Diary of Jehol that Manchu women are "full of wild flowers, regardless of age" and "over 50 years old" is still "full of flowers, full of golden flowers, a precious journey". "Even if you are nearly seventy years old, even if you are bald and shiny, you will still be full of flowers." In northern Liaoning, some Manchu women even put a small bottle full of clear water on their hair bun, and a few flowers were inserted in the bottle, which was full of vitality, reflecting their strong pursuit of beauty. In the early Qing Dynasty, the country was on the rise, and people's living consumption remained largely in the traditional mode. In order to satisfy the desire for beauty, Manchu women often wear seasonal flowers and a kind of "honeysuckle wisp" on their heads. In other words, the table is made of paper tires, and some are made of copper wire. They are packaged into all kinds of flowers, no more than two or three inches high, and the largest is nearly a foot, decorated with extremely delicate pearls and jade. In the early years of Shunzhi, the family members of Manchu military camp often used this honeysuckle as a decoration on the bun. With the establishment of politics and the consolidation of state power in Qing Dynasty, headdresses worn by Manchu women also appreciated. Although flowers can be seen everywhere, women prefer headdress flowers with precious texture. These women grow their hair to show off, not to be beautiful.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the national treasury was embarrassed and the national strength declined, which naturally affected people's lives. In order to save money, the headdress flower changed from pure gold to gold plating, the jewelry flower became velvet flower, silk flower, even paper flower and grass flower, and even the headdress flower with delicate feathers was dyed with madder. Feather Diancui jewelry has been circulating in China for a long time, and its technological level has been continuously improved, reaching its peak in Qianlong period. It is famous for its gorgeous colors and splendor, but it is very complicated to make. It is understood that a base is made of gold and silver pieces into a flower shape, and then a circle of raised grooves is welded with gold wire along the flower-shaped edge of the pattern. Apply an appropriate amount of glue to the concave part in the middle, cut off the kingfisher's feathers with small scissors, and gently arrange the feathers on the glued base with tweezers. Kingfisher's hair is emerald blue and snow blue. However, kingfishers are petite and have soft feathers. It takes a lot of kingfishers to make a headdress. Because the kingfisher's fur is bright and shiny, and the shiny convex edge, it can produce different effects from other jewelry when worn on the head.

At present, most of the metal jewelry collected in the Forbidden City in Beijing is in Qianlong period. For example, ruby inlaid with rice bead flower, pearl inlaid with three friends flower, sapphire dragonfly flower, red coral cat iris flower, gold inlaid with pearl jewel flower, gold inlaid with rice bead flower, coral inlaid with turquoise gourd flower and so on. , are made of welding backing technology. It not only follows the traditional skills of history, but also highlights the characteristics of Qianlong period, so that the eyes, tentacles, beards and branches of insects and birds are burned into elastic springs with fine copper wires, which move gently and sway from side to side, making the image lively and dynamic. There is also a kind of metal welding as the base and pin, and the jewelry flowers are tied into a bundle of headdresses with copper wires, which is also loved by queens because of its flexibility. It is made of copper wires with different thicknesses into flower branches and leaf branches, and then the petals made of precious stones and the small holes at the end of the leaves are strung into different single branches such as flowers, stamens, flowers and leaves, and the branches are tied into a bundle according to the figure, and finally concentrated on a thick copper wire, which is fastened with a needle. This headdress is very effective on the head and adds a lovely charm to women. In addition, metal inlaid headdress and gold silk headdress are also loved by predecessors because of their vivid image and fine workmanship, which makes future generations marvel.

Manchu women's favorite headdress is velvet flower, especially when their daughters get married, they must wear red velvet flower on their heads, which is auspicious. It is said that "velvet flower" in Chinese is similar to "splendor" in Manchu, so wearing velvet flower means prosperity. Manchu women, as long as conditions permit, should wear velvet flowers not only on the wedding day, but also all the year round, seeking homophonic auspiciousness. In particular, seasonal velvet flowers should be worn in order: beginning of spring wears a spring flag, Qingming wears willow branches, Duanyang wears wormwood, Mid-Autumn wears osmanthus, Chongyang wears Cornus officinalis, and winter wears gourd flowers. The headdresses of concubines in the Qing Dynasty, as well as a large number of velvet flowers, silk flower and silk flower, all exist in the world. These flowers are harmonious in color and rich in halo levels, which can be called "confused flowers". It is said that Yang Guifei in the Tang Dynasty had a mole on her temple, and she often wore large flowers on her temple to cover it up. Because flowers wither easily, people developed the color of flowers to make silk flower. This process is constantly developing, and the finer it is, the finer it is. The headdresses made of velvet, silk and silk left over from the Qing Dynasty include white, pink and pink peony flowers, pale yellow, medium yellow and dark yellow chrysanthemums, white, lotus root and snow blue Chinese rose flowers, pink and white plum blossoms, etc. It has lasted for a hundred years and is still glamorous and pleasing to the eye.
