The museum of charming stone faces.Museum
They say that you can meet Elvis Presley and John F. Kennedy in Saitama Prefecture’s Chichibu City in Japan. The Chichibu Museum of Rare Stones exhibits many unusual rocks, including a popular display of more than 700 that resemble people’s faces. Almost all of them has a name, with some of them resembling popular Japanese entertainers, anime characters, and even Elvis Presley and the like. Each one captures their characteristics really well. The rocks were all gathered over a 50 year period by the museum’s first director, Mr. Shoji Hayama, at the nearby Arakawa River. The current director is his daughter, Ms. Yoshiko Hayama. Ms. Hayama said that the museum, which opened its doors 27 years ago, was like an extension of her father, as she explained the stones’ various characteristics to us during our interview with her. It seems she has truly inherited Mr. Hayama’s passion for the stones.
埼玉県秩父市。ここにエルヴィス・プレスリーやジョン・F・ケネディーに”会える”場所があるという。
「秩父珍石館」という名のこの博物館には珍しい石が展示してあり、中でも人気なのが700個を超える人面石。殆どの石に名前がつけられており、日本の芸能人やアニメのキャラクター、エルヴィス・プレスリーなど、どれもうまく特徴を捉えている。これは初代館長の羽山正二さんが生前に約50年かけて近くの荒川で集めたもので、現在は娘の芳子さんが館長を務めている。27年前にオープンした博物館を「父親のようなもの」と語る芳子さんは取材中も石に関する色々な情報を教えてくれた。正二さんの石への熱い意思はしっかりと受け継がれているようだ。(2017年1月10日撮影)
