Description

Edo Karakuri Vol. 2 Restoration of Danbari Dolls Large size book

This book is a guide for restoring the Dangaeri dolls made in the Edo period to the specifications of the Edo period, with particular attention to materials and structures.
Detailed explanations with photos on how to make parts, how to assemble, how to adjust, how to make costumes, how to make a storage box (and stairs), etc. I also have drawings of all the parts.
There is no other book that explains the production process and drawings of Edo Karakuri technology in such detail, and it is a very valuable book in the sense of conveying the technology.
