FYI: there are more kokeshi for sale // the perfect gift, and a great collector's item! Also very decorative if you bundle some kokekshi with different heights together // Kokeshi are simple wooden Japanese dolls without arms or legs that have been made as toys for children for over 150 years. Originally from the northeastern Tōhoku (region) of Japan, they are handmade from wood often from fruit trees and have a simple body and head with a few thin, painted lines to define the face. The body often features floral and/or ring designs painted in red, black, and sometimes green, purple, blue, or yellow ink and they are coated with wax. Since the 1950s, kokeshi makers have signed their work, usually on the bottom and sometimes on the back. // good condition but with traces of age and use (see photos)
