江戸の人形製作は、京都の影響を受けて江戸時代初期に始まりましたが、江戸獨自のスタイルが確立されたのは、約250年前の寶暦頃と考えられています。この頃から、雛人形や五月人形は、寫實的で洗練された江戸前の姿となりました。江戸時代後期の文化文政期に江戸の人形文化は最盛期を迎え、江戸時代初期に戸外に飾っていた甲飾りは屋内に飾られ、五月人形や實物の甲冑をモデルにした精巧な飾りの江戸甲冑が作られました。
また、小さく、精巧に作られた人形や人氣俳優そっくりに作られた風俗人形、市松人形などが町に溢れるようになりました。

The production of dolls in Edo (Tokyo) began in the early Edo era (1600-1868), influenced by dolls from Kyoto, but the uniquely Edo style is said to have originated 250 years ago during the Horeki era (1751-1764).
It was during this time that dolls for Girl's Day and Boy's Day celebrations began to be produced using more sophisticated and realistic techniques. Doll culture reached its peak during the Bunka-Bunsei era (1804-1830), when the helmet decorations used outdoors were moved indoors, and dolls and elaborate decorations modeled after real armor were first made for Boy's Day celebrations.
In addition, small elaborately crafted dolls called fuzoku ningyo were made to look like popular actors and the style known as ichimatsu ningyo became wildly popular.
