Thank you for waiting. This is a craft confectionery work on the 2nd floor venue.
Here, Mr. Kimiko Gion, General Manager of Crafts Office, Genkichichoan Holdings Co., Ltd., gave an explanation.
He seems to have been involved in the production of this craft confectionery for about 16 years.
From here, the word "" is the story of Mr. Gion.
"These were made and brought in Okayama."
"It's a flower called Plumeria in Hawaii. And I'm a bird in Ray, hibiscus.
In Hawaii, a bird was playing like a sparrow (Japanese).
It seems that there are many birds that have become wild.
I would like to introduce this by all means.
Such craft confectionery has a lot of parts, so it takes a lot of time.
Benihawai Mitsusui and Ohiarephia
"It's a famous Hawaiian bird, Benihawai Mitsusui, an extinct bird.
It is a bird that feathers were used for decorations such as Hawaiian king cloaks, Ray, and turnips.
(Don't kill) He takes about three feathers from one bird.
Benihawai Mitsusui likes to suck the nectar of this (blooming on the Ohia tree) refore flower, and always comes out with this composition, so I tried to make it.
hibiscus, of course, is a flower."
・・'The Legend of Hawaii - Ohiarepha
The young lovers who love each other, Ohia and Lefah.
Even if the handsome Ohia is liked by the goddess Pele, Ohia's feelings for refore remain unchanged.
The angry goddess Pele turned Ohia into a tree.
Refore sat on the Ohia tree, and continued to cry every day.
Pele noticed a mistake in his conduct, turned the refore into a flower, and put it on the Ohire tree.
In this way, the two will be connected forever.
Even now, the tree is called Ohire and the flower is refore.
In addition, there is a legend that picking refore flowers will rain.
It is said to be because he crys, thinking that he will be separated from Ohia again.
Benikoenko and Ruri Congouinko
"It's a beautiful bird in the world, so it's a congoinko."
Giant oak and kurihashi
"This is a giant oak. And it's a plant called Streritia.
Ohhashi went to Matsue Fogel Park in Shimane Prefecture to make it.
I saw the real thing, took a picture and made it.
Pigtailbird (weaving bird)
"Ethiopia's grouperbirds, we knit the nest well with grass.
I made it to introduce that there are such birds.
Roses are also often grown in Ethiopia, so I added them.'
The Four Seasons of Japan
"The tree on the left is a tree called a square. It's a square style.
It is a tree named after the neat typeface "square-style" because the leaves are lined up regularly.
The pheasant is also a national bird and a prefectural bird in Okayama Prefecture.
If you look closely at owl, Japanese bush warbler and common kingfisher, you can see beetles and cicadas inside.
Insects have been removed by the supporting role this time.'

Please enjoy the world of colored beauty made with sweets of craft confectionery.
