We learn how people lived in the Edo period (1603-1867) from the
dolls (ningyo) that were left to us today.
They are called Fuuzoku (customs and manners) ningyo or Ukiyo (floating world) ningyo.
There are basically two types of dolls of young men among them.
Wakashu ningyo is one of them. Wakashu was used to refer to young men who had yet to experience the ceremonial rite of passage of becoming a man, commonly at the age of 12 in the old time...

WEARABLE ART: When this coat was tailored out of an old Japanese kimono, it was made to stress the lightness of the coat without the lining. Light coconut shell buttons were chosen for the same reason. Freshly made using the fabric from early 1900 to 1940. Black color with a slight green tint and silver thread stripes, medium size.

This is a beautiful old Japanese Shusu (lustrous Satin-weave) obi with the finest embroidery work.
Condition of the silk is excellent. It feels so soft, totally different from the newer obis. Color is a shiny deep blue. There is one seam in the center of the front and two in the back. Converted from Nagoya style obi to a flat obi of 11 1/8" wide x 80" long, all the works are done profesionally by hand. The design areas are balanced on each end of the front side this way...
