This is a phoenix headpiece and hairpin from an ancient Chinese wedding.

The phoenix is a symbol of good fortune, beauty, and prosperity in traditional Chinese culture.

In ancient China, the phoenix was considered a sacred bird and only the emperor was allowed to use it.

Therefore, this headpiece and hairpin represent nobility and high status.
