Celebratory 2026 New Year Horse Doll with Bamboo Plate
Originating in Kyoto, the fifth-generation Bamboo atelier Kohchosai Kosuga combines traditional shaping techniques with modern design concepts.
New Year is the biggest holiday in Japanese culture, and every year, people in Japan decorate their homes with items featuring the year's zodiac sign. This practice is considered to bring good luck to the year ahead.
2026 is the Year of the Horse, and Kohchosai Kosuga brings you a decorative set which includes a Horse Doll and a bamboo Hagoita stand. A hagoita is a paddle used for Hanetsuki, a Japanese traditional racket game played during New Year to ward off bad luck. Adorned with a festive red and white mizuhiki cord, used in Japan for celebratory occasions, the hagoita plate also serves as a versatile display stand, perfect for showcasing other cherished items throughout the year.
In Japanese culture, the horse represents vitality, strength, and forward momentum. Displaying this horse ornament is believed to bring good fortune and positive energy to your New Year celebrations!
