Boys' Festival with armor decoration of May dolls, first festival with gratitude | Keisuke-kun of Numazu

I received a letter saying that a May doll made by Keisuke from Numazu for the Boys' Festival has been completed.

Thank you very much for the fine armor and helmet.
The elegant texture and color of the leather, the paintings of Mt. Fuji and Suruga Bay on the screen, and the colors and shapes of the stag beetles are all very refined and beautiful.

I think my son is really happy to receive such a May doll.

When I visited the store, I was told that the votive armor is not meant to be used in battle, but is offered to the shrine as an offering of prayer and gratitude. I hope that my son will grow up to be a kind person who has true strength and does not take to battle easily, and who is grateful to others.

I really look forward to decorating it every year.

I will treasure it and display it for a long time.

Comments of gratitude from Takeaki Aoki, Managing Director of May Dolls Hinasei

Thank you for purchasing the votive armor for the May doll from Numazu.

Among the many decorative May dolls available, if you are looking for an authentic May doll, we recommend the votive armor.

It's expensive, but I love this kind of armor.

And as you wrote in your letter, "true strength, gratitude, and kindness." Please help to breathe these intangible things into your child's heart.

It was with this feeling that my grandparents gave me the May doll.

Thank you for taking the time to come all the way from Numazu.

Thank you for the opportunity!

I'm Tsujii, a staff member at Hinasei May Dolls.

Keisuke from Numazu sits elegantly in front of the donated armor.

Is he old enough to walk soon?

Once you start walking, the scenery you see will change and you will become interested in many things.

And every year, we decorate the May doll (armor) and express the feelings of the family.

Please feel free to talk to them.

Thank you very much for the connection from Numazu.
