Vintage handmade papier-mâché nodding rabbit with a cute face, made by an artisan. Set of 2.
Product Details
This is a papier-mâché rabbit from Toyorin, a traditional craft by Nishi-Aizu Hariko Nozawa. Its head swings.
This item is about 30 years old.
I am listing it because I don't have an opportunity to display it.
Papier-mâché, made by layering Japanese paper and other materials, is a symbolic traditional craft of Japanese culture.
It has been stored in a box, so there are no stains, but the base of the ear of the larger rabbit appears to be slightly lifted. (Image 4)
