From the brand: Inspired by the
story of Kintaro.
The old Japanese folklore of Kintaro or Golden Boy tells the story of a child of
superhuman strength, he was raised by a
yama-uba
("mountain witch") on
Mt. Ashigara
. He became friends of animals on the mountain, and later, after catching
Shuten-doji,
the terror of the region around Mount Ōe, he became a loyal follower of
Minamoto no Yorimitsu
under the new name
Sakata no Kintoki
. He is a popular figure in
Bunraku
and
Kabuki
, and it is a custom to put up a Kintaro doll on
Boy's Day
in the hope that boys will become equally brave and strong.
Kintaro
is supposedly based on a real person, Sakata Kintoki, who lived during the
Heian period
and probably came from what is now the city of
Minamiashigara
,
Kanagawa.
