    JAPAN - Meiji Period (1868-1912).
    A set of two Musha Ningyō dolls depicting a samurai and his squire, made of wood, silk, papier-mâché, hair, straw, metal, and feathers. The seated samurai is equipped with a gunbai fan, a wakizashi, a bow, and a quiver containing five arrows. The kneeling squire, wearing a jingasa hat, carries a shashimono banner.

    Minor wear and small losses.

    Heights:
    The set comes in its original wooden storage box.

    Notes: Musha Ningyō (武者人形), or "warrior dolls," are traditional Japanese figures representing heroes, samurai, and legendary figures from history and mythology.

    They are particularly associated with the festival of boys, now celebrated on May 5th. Displayed in homes, often dressed in richly detailed armor, they embody the warrior virtues of the samurai and have a protective function.
