Japanese Hina Doll
The term doll in Japan is "ningyō", "human form". Japan has a special relationship with dolls: Until the beginning of the Meiji era, dolls participated in ritual and religious ceremonies, imbuing themselves with the sins of the people who touched them. Since the end of the 17th century, the "Girls' Day (hina matsuri)" festival, also known as the "peach festival", has been celebrated on March 3rd, the peach blossom being representative of feminine qualities of grace and kindness. On May 5th, for little boys, warrior and refined dolls are exhibited on small platforms.
