Museum No.

The male doll wears a woven hunting robe patterned with cranes and clouds—a design worn only by princes. Japanese court costumes are regulated by traditional protocols called yūsoku. Yūsoku bina dolls faithfully adhere to these rules. They were usually commissioned by courtiers. This set was once a gift from Princess Yasuko of Arisugawa (1864–1963).
