Souvenirs

4.0

This craft shop, facing the Important Cultural Property-designated Kusano Honke, primarily sells handmade Japanese dorei pottery bells. Dorei bells are a craft which have been widely used since ancient times because they are said to ward away evil and misfortune. The shop's hina doll bells are particularly recommended and are crafted by covering an unpainted pottery bell with handmade Japanese washi paper and painting it with a face and clothing using traditional black ink. Other products the shop sells include dorei bells modeled after the animals of the Chinese zodiac, and clay ohajiki pieces decorated with colorful flowers used to play a traditional Japanese children's game of the same name. The shop is also a great place to look for souvenirs of your trip.

かわいらしい土鈴のお店

Reviewed：2019.01.05

大小さまざまな動物の土鈴を売っています。なんともかわいらしい動物たちです。置物としてひとつ買って帰りました。お店の方から、鈴は場を清める力があると伺いました。鳴らしてみると、とてもきれいな透き通った音がします。
豆田町の土鈴の店です

豆田町の西駐車場から少し歩いたところにある土産物屋が連なっている一角にあります。土鈴のお店で手作りのものを並べています。夏に来れば一つ買って行くかもしれないなと思う場所です。
