The sacred fruit that takes center stage during the Girls' Festival
Peaches are the most important and sacred fruit, and are the origin of the name "Momo no Sekku," the official name of Hinamatsuri.
In ancient China, peaches were revered as the fruit of immortality, with the power to ward off evil spirits and protect against evil spirits, and were also a symbol of immortality.
Peach blossoms were introduced to Japan during the Nara period, and in the Heian period, peach blossoms and fruit began to be used in ceremonies to ward off evil spirits at court events.
The soft curves and beautiful shape of the peach make it an ideal motif for expressing feminine beauty and elegance, and it has been cherished as a symbol of wishes for the healthy growth of girls in particular.
The sweet aroma and delicious taste of peaches also represent the sweetness and richness of life, and are imbued with wishes for a happy life.
The deeper meaning of peaches in hanging dolls
Adding peaches to the hanging Hina dolls decorations embodies the most fundamental and important wish for your child.
First of all, the peach's powerful talismanic powers express the parents' earnest wish to protect their children from evil spirits and disasters and ensure that they live healthy and safe lives.
The beautiful shape and color of the peach also represents the hope that your child will grow up to be a beautiful person both inside and out, and someone who is loved by many people.
Furthermore, as peaches symbolize longevity, it also expresses the wish that the child will live a long, healthy, and fulfilling life.
During Hinamatsuri, the Doll Festival, the peach is the most important motif with a central meaning, and is a special object that embodies all of a girl's wishes for a happy future.
Mysterious powers passed down from ancient times
Since ancient times, peaches have appeared in myths and legends as a fruit with mystical powers.
In Chinese mythology, eating the fairy peaches grown in the peach garden of the Queen Mother of the West is said to grant immortality, and peaches are deeply connected to the world of immortals.
In the Japanese Kojiki, there is a scene in which Izanagi no Mikoto throws a peach fruit to drive away a demon, and the power of peaches to ward off evil has been recognized since the age of mythology.
In the story of Momotaro, Momotaro is born from a peach and defeats an ogre, which expresses the peach's symbolic aspects of justice and courage.
Due to these cultural backgrounds, peaches are deeply rooted in the hearts of Japanese people as something sacred and special that goes beyond being a mere fruit.
Three-dimensional beauty created by artisanal techniques
This three-dimensional peach is the culmination of craftsmanship, faithfully recreating the characteristics of a real peach.
Each piece is carefully handcrafted by skilled artisans, and the rounded shape and subtle unevenness of the surface, characteristic of peaches, are reproduced in three dimensions in every detail.
In particular, the beautiful curves and natural fullness of the peach are a highly advanced technique that can only be achieved by artisans with many years of experience.
In addition, the unique texture of the crepe fabric is utilized to express the softness and warmth of a real peach.
The three-dimensional design creates a presence and beauty that cannot be expressed through two-dimensional decoration, leaving a deep impression and emotion on the viewer.
Expressing the feeling of spring and vitality
Peaches are a typical fruit that heralds the arrival of spring, and they express the beauty of the season.
The blooming of peach blossoms symbolizes the end of a long winter and the beginning of new life, and expresses the joy of spring, a season of hope and rebirth.
The process of peaches ripening is likened to a child's growth, and the sight of a small flower growing into a beautiful fruit expresses hope for a child's healthy growth.
The three-dimensional peaches displayed as hanging dolls create a seasonal atmosphere befitting the spring event of Hinamatsuri, and bring the warmth and vitality of spring to the entire room.
This seasonal feeling also conveys the hope that your child's life will always be filled with hope and brightness like spring.
