The "bonbori" (paper lanterns) of the Hina dolls were originally lighting fixtures used in Edo-era nighttime weddings to illuminate the hands. Because the Hina dolls are modeled after the Emperor's wedding ceremony, they are essential accessories, displayed in pairs on either side to gently illuminate the main characters, the male and female dolls.
