In the Ise region, it has long been a custom to hang a wooden plaque inscribed with
“Somin Shorai Shison Kemon” at the entrance of the home,
praying for good health and protection from illness.

Simple wooden plaques and nostalgically charming toys—
rather than formal ritual objects,
they were forms of quiet protection woven into everyday life.

As a small cultural tradition rooted in this land,
we present them here together with their historical background.
