Standing at the center of this trio is a Ryukyu figure adorned in a luxurious twelve-layered kimono (junihitoe) with an exquisite crane pattern, a garment historically worn by nobility since the Heian period and still part of the Emperor and Empress's attire during important ceremonies. Contrary to its name, the junihitoe consists of eight layers, each representing an aspect of classical Japanese beauty. Flanking this central figure are two Geisha dolls, each attired in meticulously detailed kimonos, exhibiting the refined aesthetic and cultural depth of the Geisha. From the intricate hairpins and elaborate hairstyles to the delicate facial features and poised stances, these dolls are a testament to the artistry of Japanese craftsmanship. Please note, this collection bears the marks of its age with some staining and a hint of blue rust on the Ryukyu doll's hairpin. For a detailed view of their condition, we encourage examining the accompanying photographs. Dimensions of Middle Doll: approx. H 57 cm W 31.5 cm D 25.8 cm ・Please make sure to review all the provided information and images before placing your bid. ・We make every effort to accurately represent the product's colors and textures in our photos.
