Majestic Hinamatsuri Display
Celebrating Hinamatsuri at the Koma Old Town House

The exquisite detail of this glass-encased doll shows fine craftsmanship. It's almost as if the doll is in motion.

This glass-encased doll exudes the same grace and elegance that only a woman donning a kimono can.

This majestic multi-tiered doll display can be found at the entrance of the Main House.

Each of the pieces in the hanging display symbolizes something auspicious such as fertility, good health, good fortune, etc.

This doll set looks more understated than the other sets on display and it dates back to a hundred years ago.

Some of the doll sets are particularly ornate.

The Hinamatsuri display at the Koma Old Town house runs from February 18 to March 8, 2015.

Nice pictures to share as Girl's Day was just two days ago. It is fun to see dolls of families and shops as every collection is unique.
