Description from the seller
This handcrafted traditional Japanese wooden Kokeshi doll is carved from natural solid wood, with distinct wood grain clearly visible across the body.
The doll features a soft, serene facial expression with slender closed eyes, dressed in a hand-painted kimono decorated with vibrant red, blue and yellow chrysanthemum blossoms, matched with a red braided cord accent on the front. Its double round hair ornaments are printed with classic red polka dot motifs. The outer kimono layer adopts a split hanging sleeve design, bringing a distinctive three-dimensional layered visual effect.
The bottom base is clearly marked with a red carved artist seal, representing authentic Japanese folk craft aesthetics. The doll is in excellent condition; the wooden lacquer surface bears only minor subtle natural age wear, all hand-painted floral and facial patterns remain fully intact with no peeling, fading or colour loss. The solid wood body has no splits, cracks or impact damage. It is an ideal pick for Japanese folk craft collections, desktop tea room ornaments and oriental cultural display decor.
