Kimekomi Hina Dolls of Traditional Craftsmanship

 


Kimekomi dolls are made by carving grooves into a wooden body and then tucking fabric into those grooves.
These dolls feature a sculpted body and endearing plump, hand-painted faces.
The various expressions on their faces, depending on how they are painted, are truly charming.



Luxurious Costumes of Nishijin-ori Kinran Fabric

 

The fabric used for the kimonos in kimekomi dolls is Nishijin-ori kinran (brocade). The kimonos, in gentle colors reminiscent of spring, are adorned with auspicious designs such as plums and irises in soft hues.

The plum blossom, blooming in the cold, embodies the wish for resilience in adversity, while the iris (shobu) carries the auspicious meaning of "winning a battle."

【About Toyama】
The history of Toyama Kobo runs alongside the history of Iwatsuki, the town of dolls.
Iwatsuki, which flourished as a castle town and post town since the Kaei era, was blessed with paulownia wood and water suitable for doll making, and has since developed into a town boasting the highest doll production in Japan. During the Kaei era, Ryuken Totsuka, a doctor to the lord of Iwatsuki Castle, pursued doll making as a hobby in addition to his medical practice. When he presented one of his works to the castle lord, he was praised and granted the artist name "Toyama." This distinguished name of Hina craftsman Toyama has been passed down through generations, reaching the present 6th generation Hina craftsman Toyama.
