In Japan, there is a long continued festival called Hina-Maturi. Hina is ancient word meaning doll and ‘Matsuri’ means festival. It is a ceremony to pray for young girls' growth and happiness. Most homes with girls display dolls for this Doll's Festival and dedicate to them peach blossoms.
These dolls are specially made for this festival.
The name of dolls ‘Sei-Kun’ means ‘Pure Aroma’.
