Wooden May Doll "Shinju no Hikari"


To create a new May doll, we asked the world-renowned sculptor Ai Haibara to make the prototype and design it. Haibara's work is characterized by its warm and gentle expression that makes the most of the charm of wood. We took on a completely new manufacturing method, carving solid wood from scratch and painting each one by hand, and created a new May doll that can only be found here.

Material: May doll, pedestal: Hinoki wood Size: H235×W193×D195mm
Weight: 850g



A new style of May doll made from wood

Haibara-sensei's works are characterized by the texture of wood, gentle colors and warm expression. They are elegant and Japanese, and go well with modern interiors. The wood used is cypress, which has a soft and beautiful grain. It envelops the space with the gentle atmosphere of natural wood.



Each piece is hand-painted and colored. The gentle expressions and warmth of wood, which are characteristic of Haibara's work, and the coloring that gives off a gentle atmosphere, are carefully finished by hand one by one.






The three-dimensional patterns of the armor are expressed in a way that can only be achieved through sculpture. The deep colors and warm atmosphere created by layering multiple layers of color are appealing.


A modern May doll that matches modern interiors

The May dolls, with their modern design and warmth of wood, go well with modern interiors. Their sophisticated appearance, not too flashy, will fit in with any space, whether it's a Western-style room or a Japanese-style room. The warmth of wood and gentle expression of the dolls will watch over your child's growth, and they are worthy of being displayed as treasures even after they grow up.
