Shaped like a traditional Japanese kurazukuri (蔵造り) merchant house, it reflects the historic townscape for which Kawagoe is especially famous.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKawagoe is affectionately known as “Koedo” (小江戸), or “Little Edo,” because of its remarkably well-preserved streets, storehouses, temples and merchant architecture dating from the Edo period. Its distinctive black-walled kura storehouses and traditional tiled roofs continue to give the town the atmosphere of old Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis small bell is formed from warm, unglazed reddish clay, with architectural details carefully moulded into the surface, including tiled roofs, windows and the façade of a traditional building. A vivid blue cord is threaded through the top for hanging or carrying. Inside is a small clay pellet that produces the gentle, earthy sound characteristic of Japanese dorei bells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditionally, dorei were more than decorative souvenirs: clay bells have long been associated in Japan with good fortune, protection and the warding away of misfortune. Over time, they also became popular regional folk crafts and travel keepsakes, often shaped after local landmarks, animals or cultural symbols.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 5 x 4 x 7cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58081098858827,"sku":"CB295","price":12.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/Cover_d63153ca-ffff-4722-bc2e-9f39de689b9a.jpg?v=1786279041","url":"https:\/\/maisonkyo.be\/es\/products\/cb295-dorei-clay-bell-from-koedo-kawagoe-%e5%b0%8f%e6%b1%9f%e6%88%b8%e5%b7%9d%e8%b6%8a","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
