Bamboo-Grass & Cherry-Blossom-pattern mini Kokeshi-Hina
Hina-no-sekku dates back to the imperial court, in which a baby was purified in the form of a human figure to purify it and float it in the river.
In the Edo period, samurai and townspeople began to decorate hina dolls to celebrate, and even today, the first festival has been handed down as a traditional Japanese culture to pray for the healthy growth of babies and to ward off evil.
We have inherited the history and traditional techniques of the Nabeshima clan kiln, and we continue to make porcelain hina dolls while carefully handing them down to the next generation.
Hataman Touen craftsmen, who have inherited the sophisticated techniques of Imari Nabeshima ware, carefully paint each piece.
Therefore, there may be slight individual differences in facial expressions, but this is a hina doll that you can enjoy with such fluctuations.
The emperor and empress will be a pattern set with a bamboo outside dark pattern and the hina dolls will be a pattern set with a cherry blossom outside dark pattern.
