■ Description Product Name: Gion Matsuri Yamahoko Miniature (Naginata-boko) Artist: Sakura-Iya Materials: Wood, clay, cloth Size: Approximately 31 cm in height, approximately cm in width, approximately cm in depth Acquired: August 1966 Accessories: Original box included, no instruction manual Description: This is a miniature of the Yamahoko (Naginata-boko) from the Gion Matsuri in Kyoto. Sakura-Iya in Shinkyogoku, Kyoto, was an established shop that was founded during the Tenpo era. They were famous for their hand-printed woodblock prints, but they also handled souvenirs such as small items and dolls. However, they closed down in 2011 due to the lack of artisans. This miniature is a vintage item from 60 years ago, and its very detailed craftsmanship is enjoyable. The dolls of the chigo (child), ondotori (leader), and hayashikata (musicians) are richly expressive. The size of the dolls can be seen in the 8th photo, compared to a matchstick. Even recently, I see miniatures of Yamahoko, but I don't see any that include the chigo and hayashikata. I think this is a valuable work from the Showa era. This is an item from a collection that is being sorted. ■ Condition: It has been stored in its box, so there is some paint peeling on a part of the shibi (ornamental roof tile), but the main body is generally in good condition. However, please understand that there may be some minor dirt and damage due to aging, as it is a used item. Please make your decision based on the photos, and place your order only after you have agreed that it is a used item. No claims and no returns are accepted. ■ #Tamaji Folk Toys I am also selling other folk toys. Please use the hashtag to view them.
