桃の節句・すずきまみの銀飾りひいなDoll’s Festival: Silver-decorated Hiina Dolls by Mami Suzuki
女児の伝統の節句、雛飾りのしつらえには、日本人としての美の感覚を繋いでいって欲しいという願いが込められているように思う。
すずきまみさんの銀飾りひいなは、美しい手の細工が綿密に施されていて愛らしい。
男女のひいなの本体内部は越前和紙を二重にして形づくられている。着物地の表は、湊町三国の老舗料亭から譲り受けた大正時代の正絹縮緬の留袖。留袖の裾にあしらわれたおめでたい松と、門出にふさわしい舟の染めに刺繍が施された生地をつかい、裏布は正絹縮緬白無地を一枚一枚表地に合う色味に染め上げている。ひいなの顔は同じく正絹縮緬の乳白色を用いて、柔らかく優しげに輪郭のみで表情を想像させる。
伝統的な着物の色彩や柄を切り取り、銀細工により一層華やかな世界をつくり出す。ジュエリーの世界から銀細工の技術を積み上げ、常に身につける人の喜びと美しさを追求してきた作家の美の感覚はひいなの中で花開き、見るものを自然と春へと運んでくれる。いくつになっても、愛らしく美しい女の子の日をしつらえていきたい。

The setting for the Doll’s Festival, a traditional festival for girls, seems to illustrate a wish for the young generation to preserve the Japanese sense of beauty into the future.
Mami Suzuki’s silver-decorated Hiina dolls are lovely and delicately embellished by hand.
The body of both male and female Hiina dolls are shaped using folded Echizen Washi paper. The front side of the dolls’ Kimono is based on a Taisho period pure silk crepe Tomesode (a married woman’s formal Kimono) passed on from a long-established restaurant in the Minatomachi Mikuni area. Suzuki uses the bottom part of the cloth of Tomesode with a festive pine and boat embroidered on the front, appropriate to the occasion of a new departure. For the inside, she uses pieces of pure silk plain white crepe dyed specially to match the colour of the front cloth. Pure silk plain milky white crepe is used for the face, where the shape itself is enough to imagine their soft and gentle facial expressions.
Suzuki creates an even more festive world by not only cropping colours and patterns from traditional Kimono, but also adding her own silver work. The sense of beauty of the artist, who initially trained in jewellery making and developed her silversmithing skill, flourishes within the Hiina dolls and naturally invites the viewers into spring. Her dolls make us realise the importance of maintaining a lovely, beautiful day to celebrate girls.
