Kimono doll

I bought a 2 foot tall Japanese doll that includes a small model shamisen made with real hides and string. It also has a paper drum, kimono doll.

There are various types of traditional dolls , some representing children and babies, some the imperial court, warriors and heroes, fairy-tale characters, gods and rarely demons, and also people of the daily life of Japanese cities. Many have a long tradition and are still made today for household shrines, formal gift-giving, or for festival celebrations such as Hinamatsuri , the doll festival, or Kodomo no Hi , Children's Day. Some are manufactured as a local craft, to be purchased by pilgrims as a souvenir of a temple visit or some other trip. Expert Alan Pate notes that temple records refer to the making of a grass doll to be blessed and thrown into the river at Ise Shrine in 3 BC; the custom was probably even more ancient, but it is at the root of the modern doll festival, or Hinamatsuri. In the early 11th century, around the peak of the Heian period , several types of dolls had already been defined, as known from Lady Murasaki's novel The Tale of Genji. Girls played with dolls and doll houses; women made protective dolls for their children or grandchildren; dolls were used in religious ceremonies, taking on the sins of a person whom they had touched. Probably the first professional dollmakers were temple sculptors, who used their skill to make painted wooden images of children Saga dolls.

Thanks Stephanie I would like to get a real drum like that in the future. BTW- The blue plastic clips are difficult to get apart once fully tightened gripping something. Some are manufactured as a local craft, to be purchased by pilgrims as a souvenir of a temple visit or some other trip. Homes and shops put up traditionally-clothed dolls of various sizes, set on a red dais, around 3rd March for the festival of Hinamatsuri. I want to reskin the toy shamisen. Dolls have been a part of Japanese Culture for many years, and the phenomenon of collecting them is still practiced. I sanded the mold off the wood base. The catalog was published in , under the title Unai no Tomo. Unlike Tissot, Adeline is recognized as a true collector. During the s, Tissot was known as one of the most important collectors of Japanese art in Paris. In the early 11th century, around the peak of the Heian period , several types of dolls had already been defined, as known from Lady Murasaki's novel The Tale of Genji.

Maybe I can mix a lighter flesh tone paint for her face, neck and fingers…. To finish it off I need to make a small bachi and small koma since they were missing from the doll set. Probably the first professional dollmakers were temple sculptors, who used their skill to make painted wooden images of children Saga dolls. I am not sure if they will work well or not…. I thought the dry cleaning fluid I bought would remove mold, but it had no effect…. I think before I add thinned black fabric paint to her hair I will need to add masking tape to the other parts of the doll to avoid spilling and damaging the doll. Many have a long tradition and are still made today for household shrines, formal gift-giving, or for festival celebrations such as Hinamatsuri , the doll festival, or Kodomo no Hi , Children's Day. Main issue IMHO is the mold. I will need to touch up her eyes, eyelids, eyebrows, mouth and neck. Article Talk. I am thinking I can make a miniature stretching frame with only one or two fingers on each side for a total of clamps to grab and stretch the skin. The drum is lovely! Good job! If it is a natural silk material is would be very difficult to get rid of mold and dirt.
