A sacred bird that heralds the arrival of spring
The Japanese bush warbler has long been known as the "harutsugedori" (bird that heralds the arrival of spring), and has been loved by the Japanese as a special bird that heralds the arrival of spring.
It appears frequently in classical literature such as the Manyoshu and Kokin Wakashu, and its beautiful cry is affectionately known as "hohokekyo."
Along with plum blossoms, they are considered a symbol of spring and are deeply rooted in Japanese culture as messengers of hope that herald the end of the long winter.
The beautiful song of the Japanese bush warbler is also associated with Sugawara no Michizane, the god of learning, and the bird has been revered as a symbol of wisdom and learning.
The meaning of the Japanese bush warbler in hanging dolls
Adding a bush warbler to hanging Hina dolls decorations carries with it a deep wish.
First of all, it expresses the love of parents who wish that the spring of hope will always come into their child's life.
Also, inspired by the beautiful song of the Japanese bush warbler, it is a wish that the child will grow up to be someone who can speak beautiful words and is good at communicating with others.
Furthermore, as a symbol of learning, it also expresses hopes for education, that children will acquire wisdom and the ability to learn, and grow into fine individuals in the future.
It is a lucky charm perfect for Hinamatsuri, celebrating a new beginning with the arrival of spring.
The beauty of nature with a rich sense of the seasons
This miniature bush warbler has been created as a work that symbolizes the beauty of Japan's four seasons.
The wings, reminiscent of fresh greenery, and the body decorated with flowers represent the rich nature of the fields and mountains in spring.
In particular, the floral pattern on the body is reminiscent of spring flowers such as plum and cherry blossoms, conveying the classic aesthetic sense of the combination of the Japanese bush warbler and flowers to the modern era.
This harmony of colors gives the viewer a sense of the gentle arrival of spring and has a soothing effect on the soul.
The harmony with nature that the Japanese have loved since ancient times is beautifully expressed in this small work.
The craftsman's meticulous techniques and love
Although it is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, it faithfully reproduces the distinctive body shape and beautiful texture of the feathers of a Japanese bush warbler.
Each bird is carefully handmade by skilled artisans, and the unique texture of the crepe fabric is used to express the cuteness of a real warbler.
In particular, the shape of the wings and the angle of the tail feathers have been carefully crafted down to the smallest detail, allowing you to enjoy the beautiful silhouette whether viewed from the side or the front.
In addition, the arrangement and color of the floral patterns vary from piece to piece, giving each piece its own unique personality and charm.
