五月人形の兜飾りで端午の節句 初節句|藤枝市の宗憲くん

Boys' Festival First Festival with a helmet decoration for May dolls | Munenori-kun from Fujieda City

This helmet was a gift from a grandfather to his grandson.

I hope that in the future my son will be able to feel through this May doll how much his grandparents, parents, and neighbors were happy about his birth and how much they cherished him.

The helmet protects the boy who will be the heir to the family, and the oak leaves remain on the tree until new buds appear and the boy grows big.

・It has the meaning of the prosperity of the family

・Iris flowers ward off evil spirits

Hinasei-san explained this to me.

I would like to celebrate Tango no Sekku with my family every year so that my son will grow up healthy.

Thank you for this wonderful opportunity.

I'm Tsujii, a staff member at Hina Dolls.

I also believe that the May Festival, with its helmets, kashiwamochi (oak leaf rice cakes), and carp streamers, is filled with parents' feelings of wishing for the safety of their children.

I'm sure that in the future, Munenori will deeply appreciate the fact that it was all for him, from the fact that they chose it, gave it to him, and that they display it every year.

I look forward to the day when you realize how much you are loved.

The customs that have been cultivated through Japan's ancient traditions are filled with meaning in every aspect.

We hope to continue to understand this meaning, communicate it to our customers, and pass it on to children ourselves for a long time to come.

May dolls are certainly splendid things. And what makes them even more splendid is the feelings of the parents and grandparents, as you mentioned!

Thank you very much for this opportunity.
