Collection: Kimekomi doll kits on sale

Takasago dolls

• Takasago dolls are dolls given to young couples who are starting a new family.
• Why is it necessary to give these old man and old woman dolls to young couples? The reason is that they embody the giver's parental feelings of wanting the couple to live happily and healthily until they become an old, gray-haired couple.
• The sender of the Takasago and the time of giving vary depending on the region. In the Tama and Musashino areas where our company is located, the parents from the hometown would give them around February to coincide with the young couple's first Hinamatsuri in March. For this reason, they are also known as gift dolls in this area. Recently, they are often given to coincide with New Year's and other times when families meet.
• In areas with a large number of betrothal gifts, such as the Kansai region, Takasagos are often included in the betrothal gifts, and in that case they are given by the bride's family, but the parents' feelings for the young couple are the same whether they are in the bride's family or in the hometown.
• There are many regions where it is not customary to give such dolls as gifts, but I think your feelings will be conveyed, so why not give one? Also, for those who have missed the deadline, now is the time to do so. Rather than worrying about it, why not give one?
• We do not have many finished products in stock, so in most cases, we make them to order. Delivery will take about one month. 

Welcome Doll Bear

• Welcome dolls have recently become common at weddings. Our company offers original welcome dolls, with original ornaments and costumes. You can choose the shape of the ornament and the color of the face, and we will create it in the costume of your choice. As it is a wooden doll, it can be displayed for a long time as a keepsake. As it is a cute bear, some people use it as a gift.

Bride

• How about a present from a daughter to her parents on her wedding day? It will be a wonderful gift that will remain in their memories for a long time. The attire can be made from a plain white wedding kimono, a colored uchikake, or a fabric of your choice, and the head accessory can be made to your liking, such as a cotton hat, a tsunokakushi, or a traditional Japanese hairstyle.

Gift dolls

• "I want to send something to my friend to celebrate their new beginning, but I don't know what to give." It's a question I hear often. Since it's a celebration after all, I recommend a doll that is an auspicious item that can be displayed for a long time. The one I recommend here is Sanbaso. It is an auspicious dance performed in the "Okina" part of Noh theater, celebrating peace throughout the world, a tranquil land, and bountiful harvests. (Excerpt from the Japanese Doll Association Doll Dictionary) It is the perfect auspicious item for celebrations.
