Handmade Japanese Mandarin Orange (Large) Hanging Doll | A symbol of fertility and health, a lucky charm for inbound tourists, and a popular Japanese item among foreign tourists
The warmth of a large mandarin orange carrying the winter sunshine
This hanging Hina doll depicts mandarin oranges, a beloved winter symbol in Japan, in a large size that makes it stand out.
Each piece is carefully handmade by skilled artisans in Shizuoka Prefecture, and is a warm and auspicious item that is imbued with deep wishes for fertility and good health.
Prayers for abundance and health contained in mandarin oranges
Mandarins have long been deeply rooted in Japanese winter culture as a symbol of fertility, health, family harmony, and warm affection.
The mandarin oranges on the hanging dolls represent the wish that children will grow up healthy and without food shortages, eating a nutritious diet.
Large mandarins in particular represent "great abundance" and "abundant nutrition," and are imbued with even stronger wishes.
The sweet aroma and taste of mandarin oranges symbolize family togetherness, and also represent a prayer for children to grow up surrounded by love in a warm home.
Additionally, the Vitamin C that is abundant in mandarins is a symbol of health, and so it is imbued with the medical wish that the child will grow up with a strong body and immune system that can withstand illness, and it also expresses a prayer for the child to grow up healthy and resistant to the cold of winter.
The fresh beauty of mandarin oranges expressed through artisanal skill
Made from soft crepe fabric, the large size of this tangerine measures 7cm in height and 9cm in width, beautifully capturing the characteristics of a mandarin orange.
The vibrant orange and yellow tie-dye pattern recreates the texture of real mandarin peel, giving viewers a delicious impression.
The three-dimensional finish, with the green leaves carefully crafted, gives the piece a sense of vitality, just like fresh mandarin oranges just picked from the tree.
Thanks to the artisan's skill, the roundness and natural color of the mandarin orange are beautifully expressed, making this an adorable piece that will warm your heart just by looking at it.
Modern seasonal arrangement ideas for health wishes
If you display it in your entrance or living room as winter decor, it will create a warm atmosphere even during the cold season.
Combine it with other auspicious items as New Year's decorations to create a gorgeous ornament that expresses wishes for a prosperous new year.
It has special meaning as a get-well gift for someone wishing them good health, or as a winter gift to prevent colds.
By lining up several mandarin oranges to create a "mandarin orange mountain," you can create a fun winter atmosphere at home, just like a mandarin orange farm.
As a local souvenir representing Shizuoka's famous mandarin oranges, it can also serve as a gift that conveys the characteristics of the region, a gift that introduces Japanese winter culture to people from overseas, and can be used as a teaching material to explain the cultural background of kotatsu and mandarin oranges.It is also the perfect gift from grandparents to their grandchildren, conveying their warm and thoughtful message of "Make sure you eat well so you don't catch a cold."
