Kanazawa is a city with a long history expanding over more than 400 years,
and marked by traditional arts and crafts that are intrinsically bound with every day life in this oasis of culture.
The Kaga-Temaris, also named the gPrincesses Handballsh have been made since the early Edo period(1600). Unfortunately, these elegant toys have been in decline since the increase of the use of rubber balls in the Taisho era(1912-1926).
