Part of the Jasminum family within The Flower Universe collection, this classically elegant lapel pin draws inspiration from the Jasminum sambac, also known as Arabian Jasmine—one of Indonesia’s national flowers, honoured as Puspa Bangsa, or the "Flower of the Nation."
Celebrated for its delicate beauty and rich symbolism, the jasmine flower embodies love, modesty, and purity. It holds deep cultural significance in Southeast Asia, particularly in Indonesia, where it is intricately woven into weddings and traditional ceremonies as a symbol of sanctity and grace.
This classic lapel pin is meticulously handcrafted, showcasing the artistry of wire manipulation paired with traditional filigree techniques. Its design features a prominent Jasminum blossom. At its centre rests a radiant 5 mm freshwater pearl, adding an element of understated luxury. A classy half-spiral needle pin and polished silver push-on pin cover complete the piece, balancing practicality with refined sophistication.
Honouring the Jasminum sambac’s enduring symbolism of elegance in simplicity, this lapel pin is perfect for those who appreciate cultural heritage, refined craftsmanship, and meaningful design. It is more than an accessory—it is a celebration of cultural artistry and enduring sophistication.
Jasminum Lapel Pin
Rooted in the heritage of Indonesia’s Pasisir Batik from Pekalongan, The Flower Universe collection reimagines the traditional Sekar Jagad batik through an alternate interpretation: in this view, "Sekar" means "flower" and "Jagad" means "universe," as opposed to the conventional "Kar Jagad," which translates to "world map."
While this interpretation differs, the core values and message remain unchanged: to celebrate diversity and embrace unity within it. We chose this alternate meaning to highlight the distinctive qualities of Central Java's Pasisir Batik, which is known for its rich floral motifs, each symbolising unique cultural meanings.
The collection is organised into Eight themed "universes" or families: Jasminum, Ixora, Hieracium, Sambucus, Achillea, Lobularia, Phlox and Bloom. Each of these reflects a unique floral world, showcasing the symbolic and artistic diversity that defines Pasisir Batik.
