Product Description: While now a national holiday known as "Children's Day," it was originally a day to ward off evil spirits by hanging irises and mugwort on eaves. Since the Edo period, it has come to be known as a festival for boys, and following the example of samurai families displaying armor and streamers, townspeople have also begun to display warrior dolls and carp streamers.
