Thank you for viewing. This is a pure silk (正絹) hagoita (decorative paddle) purchased about 30 years ago. I would like to offer it to those who are interested, or to those who have a baby girl this year. "Shoken" (正絹) refers to pure silk, characterized by its high-class feel and luster. It is mainly used for ornamental hagoita, and its gorgeous costumes and elaborate craftsmanship are attractive. Hagoita are like amulets, displayed during the first New Year after a girl is born, wishing for her healthy growth and happiness. The traditional oshi-e (pressed picture) craftsmanship is richly decorated with three-dimensional embellishments, making it a very beautiful item. ◾️Size (measured by an amateur) ☆With base Height: approx. 64cm, Width: approx. 24cm, Depth: approx. 24cm ☆Body only, without base Height: approx. 61cm, Width: approx. 24cm, Depth: 7.5cm ◾️It is wrapped in cellophane, so the condition is generally good. The face, kimono, and hair ornaments are clean without stains. ◾️There is a small scratch on the front of the base (Image 10). ◾️Two beautiful feathers are also included. There are no smokers or pets in the house. Shipping will be done carefully by placing the main body in a dedicated cardboard box, and then packing it in another cardboard box. Thank you for your consideration. #Hagoita #NewYearDecoration #GoodLuckCharm #Oshi-e #JapaneseCrafts #Hagoita #GirlsDay #PureSilk #ShowaRetro #Retro #Kiichi
