About this Artwork
Temari balls, also known as gotenmari balls, was introduced to Japan by the Chinese around 600 years ago. “Temari” literally means “hand ball” in Japanese.
Some of the temari balls have bells inside and are also a popular decoration used in many homes today.
It was initially made of material from old kimonos. Scraps of silk fabric would be wound up tightly to form a ball.
The wad would then be wrapped with more strips of fabric.
Temari is a folk art form once practiced by the Japanese aristocracy: many highborn Japanese women would vie to create the most beautiful temari balls. Children traditionally received temari balls from their parents on New Year’s Day. Inside the ball’s layers would be a piece of paper with a wish for the child.
Temari balls were also treasured gifts that symbolized loyalty and friendship.
