About the glass doll
We are pleased to announce “Cinderella Hina” as a new branded iconic product. Hina dolls are authentic and traditional, yet pursue the transparency and beauty of glass. The main body was made in a glass blowing workshop, and the folding screen and props were made in a cold workshop, using Kurokabe’s glass technology to create a work that has both the purity, cuteness, and formality that only glass can provide. Cinderella Hina Muse Full Set A one-of-a-kind creation that is pure and pale crystal pink, with attention to detail, and the highest quality of formality and cuteness. In particular, the Muse series, which pursues the beauty and cuteness of dolls without sparing skill and time, is a masterpiece.
