Anesama Ningyo - Merchant's Wife and Daughter 1940s

            The Merchant’s wife (on the left) wears a black outside collar and a colourful inside collar, her hair is styled in a married woman’s hairdo and she wears her obi (sash) hard, high and tight, as she does not need to worry about protecting herself from attack, because the merchant class pay their overlord for protection.

The Merchant’s daughter (on the right) also wears a black outside collar and a colourful inside collar, but she has the long sleeves and long obi of a young girl and her hair is dressed in an unmarried girl’s style.

The above text is paraphrased from a sheet of explanatory notes that accompanies the dolls.
