Connecting our hart and Hina dolls
Hina doll is one of traditional and important doll which is displayed to wish daughter's happiness at Hinamatsuri (the special day for girls) on 3 March of each year, in japan. Many Japanese celebrates their daughters with their family members and displayed Hina dolls.
The doll is made by artisans, and it takes plenty of time to make one doll as it's hand crafted.
The culture and tradition are still continuing, and more, the beauty of Hina doll has been made sophisticated year and year.
We are trying to create an hina doll which is unique and to spread japanese mode of color combinations as one of craft.

To make one Hina doll
Until we see displayed Hina doll, at least more than 50 different artisans work for making one. The process is not easy but used hands and few tools.
Artisans give their energy and hearts into the doll when they're making.
We are collaborating with Aiharu-Ningyo which is one of company has many good artisans in Koshigaya-city, Saitama. They've still made Hina doll in traditional way, so our Hina doll is a mix of authenticity and Brand-new.
Our mission is to spread Japanese sense of creation, and meets new inspiration. And the new style of our culture will begin through one Hina doll.
