Japanese Master Crafts Doll Workshop Nagae Traditional Dolls

The 1st floor of the doll production studio is transformed into a showroom from November to May, where we sell a variety of traditional Japanese dolls including Hina dolls (dolls for the festival on the 3rd of March), Gogatsu dolls (dolls for the festival on the 5th of May), Ichimatsu dolls (porcelain dolls of children), Japanese Geisha dolls (porcelain dolls of women in kimono) and New Year's decorations.

Yoshiho is a master artisan who has been making traditional Hina dolls for more than 60 years. He has held extremely well received exhibitions in Ginza and Kichijoji in Tokyo.

Traditional festival decorations (dolls, paper lanterns and banners) made in Aichi and part of Gifu were designated as a Traditional Handcraft by the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry in 2021.
This announcement was a good opportunity not only for people in the region but also across the country to recognize traditional Japanese culture once again.
