Maruhei Oki Doll Hina Doll Set of 15

Imperial Couple (Emperor and Empress), Three Court Ladies, Five Musicians, Guards, Attendants

This doll set was lovingly passed down from a mother, who came from a noble family, to her daughter.
It is said to have been a gift from the founder of a major frozen food company's predecessor, an ice company, but there is no confirmation of this fact. I went to the Mitsui Museum to see if the Maruhei shop's Hina Dolls were displayed there. Later, when I visited Kyoto in the summer, I showed the owner of the Maruhei shop pictures, and they confirmed that they were indeed from the Maruhei shop. The Imperial Couple dolls were made by a certain generation of Oki Heizo, and the other dolls might have been made by his disciples. This is based on the small size of the photos on my phone.
Only the dolls are included. The cloth shown in the pictures is not part of the set. The accessories are a freebie.

Thank you.
