Tobe-yaki Aofusa Ningyo (Dolls) Hina Ningyo (Hina Dolls) Set of 10 Aofusa Dolls This is a set of Hina dolls. Two O-hina-sama (empress and princess dolls) are carried on a palanquin by eight other dolls. Each doll has its own unique hairstyle and clothing size. There are two O-hina-sama and eight other dolls. The set includes four poles for carrying the palanquin. Because they are made of pottery and I was worried about the effects of earthquakes, I rarely displayed them. I don't see any stains, damage, or chips. Please forgive any age-related deterioration. I will also include the pamphlet in the 10th photo, but it has stains and smudges. I purchased these from Aofusa Kiln about 20 years ago. I heard that I bought them because I really wanted the items that were displayed on a large scale. Therefore, there is no box. I would like to sell them to someone who will cherish them. I will pack them securely and ship them via Takkyubin (home delivery service). From the pamphlet below ↓ Aofusa Dolls Tobe-yaki began about 350 years ago by potters who came from Korea. Aofusa dolls are entirely handmade, created using the tradition and techniques of Tobe-yaki. Perhaps because I was born on March 3, Showa 3 (1928), when I place the clay in my hands, shapes naturally emerge from my fingertips. I feel a strange coincidence, as if I was born to make dolls. At the moment the fire of the scorching kiln breathes life into the dolls, I feel an irresistible love, and at the same time, a deep joy of living wells up within me. I cherish my encounters with everyone through Aofusa dolls and hope to devote myself to my life's path. #TobeYaki #AofusaNingyo Type: Pottery Pottery: Tobe-yaki Antique items are here ↓ #Nike'sAntiqueShop
