The leading expert on compact May dolls.
Speaking of small May dolls, ``helmet decorations'' were the standard, but Sakutaro was the one who realized ``armor decorations that can be displayed in a small space.'' We have completed an "authentic" armor ornament that is not only small, but also comparable to larger armor.
The vivid works created with their precision and outstanding color sense are worth seeing.
