About Japanese dolls, some experts see a continuity in the making of human images by the ancient Jōmon culture in Japan (8000-200 B.C.E.) and in the Haniwa funerary figures of the subsequent Kofun culture. Expert Alan Pate notes that temple records refer to the making of a grass doll to be blessed and thrown into the river at Ise Shrine in 3 B.C.; the custom was probably even more ancient, but it is at the root of the modern Doll Festival or Hina Matsuri.
In the description it says; 'These dolls are made endearingly wishing chidren grow up with health. These dolls are fabulous and exquisite'... You can feel the beauty of Japanese dolls through this book.
