A set of "Hikoichi Koma", a local toy of Hikawa-cho, Yatsushiro-gun, Kumamoto Prefecture, and an official T-shirt.
[The "Hiko-ichi Koma" is a local toy in which each of the four parts of a raccoon dog (head, body, bulky body, base, and tail) is a frame, and was created and painted by Tsutomu Iseki around 1950.
The second generation, Masahiko, is now in charge of the company.
Two types of T-shirts are available:
Type A has a photo print of the adorable Hiko-ichi Koma on the front and
Type B has an embroidered illustration of a raccoon dog from the package on the left chest.
On the back of the T-shirt is a message from the creator, Masahiko Iceri, who has endorsed this project: "No matter how much money you make, it will disappear, but memories of fun things you have done will never disappear.
The item is filled with Mr. Iseri's passion for creation.
Hikoichi Koma (Local toy / Kumamoto Prefecture, Hikawa Town)
Hikoichi Koma is a local toy of Hikawa-cho, Yatsushiro-gun, Kumamoto Prefecture.
It is modeled after a raccoon dog that appears in a Kumamoto folk tale called "Hikoichi Tonchi-gatari," and can be disassembled into four pieces: a hat, head, body, tail, and base.
It is modeled after a raccoon dog in "Hikoichi Tonchi Monogatari," a Japanese tale about a man with a hat, head, body, tail, and base.
Masahiko worked as an office worker in Yokohama until the age of 34, when he returned to his hometown out of concern for his aging father and became the second generation in 1977.
He is almost self-taught in the art of koma-making and uses tools of his own making, which he has improved himself.
The wood is made from cherry trees, which have a fine surface and are easy to sharpen. The wood is ordered from Hitoyoshi City, dried naturally for six months to prevent deformation and splitting, and then turned on a wheel.
The process and design are consistently maintained as a traditional Kumamoto craft.
In addition to raccoon dogs, they also make koma with motifs of turtles, tortoises, vegetables, and fruits.
