【雛こけし-7】Hina kokeshi doll | IKEUCHI, Shione | Yajiro style | 10.5cm in height // 弥治郎系 池内潮音工人, 高さ10.5cm

This is a couple of Hina kokeshi dolls, by IKEUCHI Shione who is a Yajiro style kokeshi craftsperson.

Hina dolls are put out on the every 3rd of March for the Hinamatsuri, which is a day to pray for the healthy growth of girls.
In the lunar calendar, around the 3rd of March is the time that the peach flower begins to bloom. From ancient times, peaches were said to be a fortunate food in Japan. The fruits protect you from bad luck. So, March 3rd and the timing of the good luck peach were put together as one. Thus Hinamatsuri is also called 'momono sekku' in Japan. (Momo is peach and Sekku is period in Japanese.)
