The calm standing pose, balanced proportions, and composed expression convey a quiet confidence and refined sensibility. The figure features a finely modelled face with smooth, porcelain-like white skin and a thoughtful gaze, demonstrating the high level of craftsmanship achieved in Showa-era doll making. The hairstyle and facial features reflect a youthful male ideal associated with stylish town life rather than formal ceremony. The doll is dressed in a modern check-patterned kimono that still feels contemporary today, paired with a vivid blue heko obi tied casually at the waist. This relaxed yet tasteful styling expresses the everyday elegance of fashionable men of the period. Wooden clogs complete the outfit, and the figure stands securely on a thick, solid natural-wood base, giving the piece a stable and dignified presence. Displayed alongside female figures such as geisha dolls, this piece helps recreate a vivid Showa-period atmosphere and makes a compelling addition to a cohesive collection of Japanese dolls. The condition is fair to good vintage condition. There are minor cracks beneath both ears. The blue obi shows age-related fading and some staining. Overall wear consistent with age is present, but the facial features and structure remain well preserved. Please refer to the photos for details. Dimensions: approx.
