Edo Kimekomi Dolls are made not by putting on miniature “clothes” onto the dolls but instead by creating a mould of sorts in the shape of a body, creating small crevices, and then attaching the fabric to the body using these grooves, in a method called kimekomi, or literally woodgrain embedding, making it so that the dolls look like they are wearing kimono fabric.

Maneki Neko or Beckoning Cats are a traditional Japanese lucky charm that is of a cat with its paw held up in a cute pose, said to be inviting good luck in. Said to have been first created in the Edo period, in Edo (which is current day Tokyo) it was a part of their culture, and the popularity of the cat made it spread across the country. This cat is often seen in various shops around Japan, and are good luck charms that are displayed with the wishes of sales growth and roaring business.

We help launch several projects on Kickstarter monthly, helping amazing Japanese Creators connect to amazing backers in the West!
