Pair of hinamatsuri ひな祭り (Girls' Festival) dolls of the emperor (obina) and the empress (mebina). Both are wearing extravagant brocade silk kimonos. Their faces are painted with elegant noble-like features. The soft skin is created by applying repeated layers of the pigment called gofun 胡粉, which is the refined powder of the itabo oyster (Ostrea denselamellosa). Both are placed on a raised tatami-like platform.
This pair is known as the imperial dolls (内裏雛 (だいりびな), dairi-bina), and are placed on the top tier of the tiered doll display. The words dairi means "imperial palace".
