AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller


A traditional, creatively crafted Japanese *kokeshi* doll, carved from a single piece of wood that reveals the natural grain. The figure depicts a gentle-looking girl with closed eyes, adorned with hand-painted red and white plum blossom motifs on her kimono-style body and a red, polka-dotted hair accessory atop her head. This vintage Japanese piece bears signs of age and use, making it an ideal decorative object for a tearoom or a fine addition to a collection of folk art.
