Kimikomi Ningyo (Wooden dolls with fabric inserted into grooves) Mataro Ningyo (Name of the doll maker) Lucky Charm - Gourd Shape Only one gourd left! The pattern is the auspicious Kikyō (Chinese bellflower). The color is a slightly muted purple. This is a kimikomi doll in the shape of a gourd (hyōtan), which has been a popular lucky charm since ancient times. Gourds are said to be an all-purpose lucky charm, so it's good to display them throughout the year. There is no special case, but it comes with a white stand (photo: placed under the kimikomi doll). [Creator] This is a work by an 80-year-old with a master craftsman's license. They love kimikomi dolls and have been creating many dolls over many years. And they are still actively creating them today. Handmade with heartfelt care. [What is a Kimikomi Ningyo...] Grooves are carved into a prototype made of paulownia pulp (toso). The edges of the fabric are then pushed into the grooves with a tool called a me-uchi, creating the appearance of clothing. Around 1740, a craftsman who made offering boxes for Kamigamo Shrine in Kyoto created kimikomi dolls, making it a traditional doll with a history of nearly 300 years. [Size] Height: Approximately 18 cm Width: Approximately 11 cm ※ This is being sold on Mercari due to moving. Other "Kimikomi Ningyo" works are also available.
