A new style of Hina doll made from wood
By combining Hina dolls, a traditional Japanese culture, with art, we collaborated with sculptor Ai Haibara to develop a completely new Hina doll.
The pieces skillfully utilize the warmth and natural texture of wood, and are characterized by the three-dimensionality and delicate details that can only be achieved through sculpture.
The design, which respects classic design while pursuing simple, minimalist beauty, blends naturally into modern lifestyles, allowing you to enjoy Japanese traditions up close.

New Hina dolls to suit modern interiors
These Hina dolls, with their modern design and warmth of wood, go well with modern interiors.
Its sophisticated appearance is not too flashy and will fit in with any space, whether Western or Japanese.

Ai Haibara's Hina dolls combine the gentle atmosphere created by the warmth of wood with the presence of sculptures, and will warm the hearts of those who display them, making Hinamatsuri even more special.
A gentle expression that you'll want to look at forever
The artist's distinctive warm worldview and rich expressions that you will never tire of looking at are captivating.
A new style of wooden Hina doll
In order to realize the worldview of this work, I attempted to create Hina dolls from scratch using a completely new technique that had never been used before. I undertook a completely new method of making them by carving solid wood from scratch and painting each one by hand, and I ended up with a new type of Hina doll that incorporates high skill and rich expression.
Each piece is carefully carved from solid cypress.
We paid particular attention to the appealing qualities of wood carving, such as expressing the wrinkles and patterns of the kimono in a three-dimensional way. Then we finish it by applying layers of paint by hand.
The three-dimensional beauty that only sculpture can provide
It transcends the boundaries of tradition and exudes appeal as a work of art.
While valuing the sense of life inherent in the wood material itself, she carefully carves the facial expressions, wrinkles in the clothing, and even patterns of the characters, in pursuit of realism and elegance that makes them seem as if they are alive.
The three-dimensional, plump and supple appearance of the kimono, with a texture that retains the flavor of wood.
The doll's mysterious presence stands out.
The three-dimensional expression of the kimono's patterns and wrinkles can only be achieved through sculpture. The cherry blossom pattern appears three-dimensionally on the kimono.
The deep colors and warm atmosphere created by layering multiple layers of color are a charming and gentle worldview that only Haibara can express.
