This lot features two playful and highly original creative kokeshi-style wooden ornaments. Both pieces are made with charming hand-painted faces and sculptural forms that feel closer to small folk-art sculptures than standard kokeshi dolls. The first piece is a humorous composition built on a black wooden base. A small round-faced figure sits on a stand like a tiny candleholder, while a larger figure leans forward behind it, creating a lively sense of interaction. The curved wooden panel is decorated with hand-painted motifs and calligraphy, giving the work a nostalgic, handmade atmosphere. Natural aging, small scuffs, and paint wear can be seen, which add to the vintage character. The second piece is a hollow, purple gourd/eggplant-shaped wooden form with a window opening. Inside, two miniature doll figures are nestled together—one in pink and one in blue—creating a warm, “hidden inside” scene. The exterior shows brush-style writing and gentle color gradation, and the overall silhouette makes it an eye-catching display object. Together, these two items make an appealing set for collectors who enjoy unusual Japanese folk crafts and expressive, character-driven wooden art. Size: Approx.
