Description
High : 12cm (4.7in) Kokeshi are simple wooden dolls with no arms or legs that have been crafted for more than 150 years as a toy for children. Japanese dolls, originally from the northeastern region (Tōhoku-chihō) of Japan. They are handmade from wood, have a simple trunk & head with a few thin, painted lines to define the face. The body often has floral and/or ring designs painted in red, black, & sometimes green, purple, blue, or yellow inks, & covered with a layer of wax. One characteristic of kokeshi dolls is their lack of arms or legs. (Wikipedia) 4.7Inch Vintage Japanese Traditional Wooden Kokeshi Doll 1688
