[Pre-Order] Chinese Zodiac - Goats "Colorful Banquet"

A One-of-a-Kind Chinese Zodiac Ornament to Brighten Your New Year

Yoshiko Yumoto is the artist behind Hinamame.
“I want to cherish Japan’s ancient traditions, beautiful customs, and aesthetic sensibilities.”
With this in mind, she created Chinese zodiac dolls that can be displayed casually, like seasonal flowers.

The Chinese zodiac sign for 2027 is the Sheep (Hitsuji),
considered a lucky symbol that brings safety to the household and blessings in human connections.
Using the traditional technique of *kimekomi*—applying antique fabric to a base made from precious powdered paulownia wood—
the doll was crafted in the plump, rounded style characteristic of Hinamame, adorned with vibrant colors.

“Saien,” Splendidly Adorned with Chrysanthemums

Autumn leaves decorate the neck, while chrysanthemums add a gorgeous touch to the back.
The pink and light blue sections are made from the same smooth-textured material.
The feet are made from Edo chirimen, allowing you to enjoy the distinct character of the different fabrics.

The head features a *kanamusubi* knot, which symbolizes “dreams coming true,”
while the feet are adorned with golden plum blossom knots, symbolizing “forming bonds.”

Delicate Colors and Textures Born Only from Time-Honored Fabrics

Hinamame’s charm lies in its uniquely beautiful colors.
The pieces are made from “antique fabrics,” including kimonos and textiles dating back to the early Showa era.
Among these are rare treasures such as Edo chirimen and high-quality kimonos from the Meiji and Taisho eras,
featuring delicate patterns, embroidery, and intricate tie-dye techniques
that possess a beauty not found in modern fabrics.

A Sturdy, Custom-Made Paulownia Box, Small Yet Reliable

The doll is delivered in a paulownia box crafted by the same artisan
who has served Ms. Yumoto’s family for generations.
Paulownia wood is resistant to insects and decay, flame-retardant, and moisture-resistant,
safely protecting your precious doll.

The base is wrapped in a silk pouch and placed inside the box.
Once it arrives, you can display it right away.

Authentic Japanese Style for French Living

True Japanese style, like Hinamame, fits seamlessly into any interior.
It pairs beautifully with doilies, cake stands, and trays.
Enjoy it freely as you like, not only in Japanese-style rooms but anywhere you choose.
