About the Item
Embrace the rich cultural heritage of Japan with this early 20th-century Kokeshi doll, a charming and authentic representation of traditional craftsmanship. Originating from northern Japan, this Tohgatta-type doll is one of eleven distinct styles, each specific to a particular region. Handmade by skilled Japanese artisans from wood, the Kokeshi doll features a simple trunk-like body and an enlarged head, with its distinctive lack of arms and legs. Hand-painted with fine lines to define the face and a floral motif on the body, the doll is coated with a layer of wax and signed by the artist on the bottom or back. In good original condition, with minor wear consistent with age and use, this piece preserves a beautiful patina. Kokeshi dolls were first crafted by woodcarvers in Shinchi Shuraku during the Edo period (1600-1868) and sold to visitors at the Togatta hot springs in Zao. Measuring 21 cm in height and 6 cm in diameter, this captivating Edo-style Kokeshi doll is a timeless treasure, connecting you to the enchanting world of Japanese tradition. ______ Japanese doll called Kokeshi of the early 20th century.
