VINTAGE KOKESHI FROM JAPAN
Product details
A special kokeshi doll with high "maga" hairstyle ( refers to a traditional, voluminous style often seen in Japanese hair arrangements) and the original kanzashi (decorative hairpins) are lovely details that really set this doll apart. It’s intriguing that it has been purchased at an onsen, as kokeshi dolls are often handcrafted and sold at these locations, making them unique souvenirs with a connection to the specific region.
Even without a signature, the story behind the doll, especially if it’s tied to a particular onsen or region, can add so much value to its charm. The soft, serene face and the hand-painted details certainly reflect the craftsmanship that goes into these traditional dolls.
