DO-REI (DO-RIN) is a bell made of burnt clay.

The old DO-REI was found in ancient ritual sites such as the Jomon period.
I'm guessing that it was used as a musical instrument at the time.

After the Edo period (1604-), the DO-REI was made for the purpose of being a local toy and good luck charm.
That's why the DO-REI has been beautifully painted.
