Description

"Kimenoki" dolls are crafted by carving grooves into a wooden torso and embedding the edges of fabric strips into them to create the costume. Because the torso is made of wood, the costume retains its shape well, making these dolls easy to display and handle. They are very simple to set up and store, and—most importantly—their compact size allows them to be displayed even in small spaces.They are also recommended as seasonal décor for entryways and living rooms.

This majestic Kimekomi May doll looks as if it’s about to draw its bow and arrow at any moment. The luxurious Ryumura-zori fabric of its costume accentuates its fresh yet dignified face, and the bow and arrow are faithfully rendered down to the finest details.

The hunting robe features the “Gyoshiki Phoenix Pattern Brocade,” while the hakama is made of the “Grape and Arabesque Pattern Brocade,” which exudes luxury with its beautiful shimmer of gold.

We hope that, as you pray for the healthy growth of your children or grandchildren, these dolls from Tatsumura Art Textiles will help create memories that will remain in their young hearts forever.

*Please note that this is a made-to-order item, so it will take approximately one month to ship. We appreciate your understanding.

Dragon Boat Festival" collection of patterns to ward off bad luck

Children's Day in 2026 is scheduled to fall on May 5 (Tuesday). In Japan, it was introduced as one of the five festivals in the Nara and Heian periods, and by the Edo period (1603-1867), it had spread from the samurai to the common people, leading to the culture of carp streamers and warrior dolls. In modern times, it has taken root as an important event for boys, with its original meaning as a celebration to ward off bad luck and pray for good health.
Tatsumura Bijutsu Orimono offers a variety of May dolls and patterns suitable for to convey such feelings. Please take this opportunity to select from a wide variety of well-designed patterns for warding off evil spirits, including traditional scale patterns.

Gyoshiki Hōō-mon Nishiki(Warp-patterned Nishiki with Phoenix Design)

The original is a Nishiki (polychrome patterned silkp) reserved in the Shōsoin Repository (the Imperial treasure house built more than 1,200 years ago). It is believed to have been the covering of an arm-rest used by Emperor Shōmu (701-756). The main motif of the pattern is a grapevine arabesque roundel with a flapping phoenix in the center. It is typical of Sassanian-style designs to enclose animals or birds in roundels. In this design it is superbly combined with a phoenix, an imaginary bird in China, and grapevine arabesques showing the East-Roman influence. The fabric is a good example of the Japanese culture in the Nara Period (8th century), having direct or indirect access to the Chinese and Western cultures. The original weft-patterned Nishiki is noteworthy in the Shōsoin collection in terms of design, color scheme and weaving technique. Our fabric is a reproduction of the original pattern on a smaller scale, woven with the warp-cloth technique with a special care for refined color scheme most fit for this type of weaving.
