About the Item

Mint, signed and boxed Here's a rare Japanese Folk Art survivor, an antique hand-carved and hand-painted Kokeshi Doll- one of Japan's most popular antique doll collectibles and unique handicraft forms. The hand-carved solid cedar wood doll is signed on its unique original box. Dimensions: 4.5 inches tall and 3.5 inches diameter Hand-carved. Hand-painted. Only one. About Kokeshi dolls: Kokeshi are a popular form of Japanese dolls, originally from northern Japan. They can date back to the earliest part of the 20th century. Old antique examples are widely collected and typically hand-carved and hand-painted from wood with a simple trunk and an enlarged head. The heads are simply painted with a few lines to define the face. The body may have a variety of designs including florals and flora painted in red, black and sometimes yellow, and covered with a layer of wax. One characteristic of kokeshi dolls is their lack of arms or legs. The bottom or sides are typically marked with the signature of the artist. Old antique specimens can sell for as little as twenty five dollars a piece to many hundreds of dollars for master works. Mint, signed and boxed examples are especially difficult to find. Lifetime guarantee of authenticity: All of our Asian works of art come with our lifetime authenticity guarantee. Schneible Fine Arts has been dealing in authentic Chinese and Japanese art, antique garden ornaments, lanterns and water basins for many years. Mr. Schneible personally travels to Japan each year to meet his network partners who assist him in finding best examples.
