Asian dolls make for fine collector's items and great gifts. Kokeshi Japanese dolls, also known as kokeshi scenery dolls, were originally created by local artists in Northern Japan as souvenirs for visitors to local hot springs.
Colorful and fun, these Japanese wooden dolls are characterized by their round heads and long, cylindrical bodies. Produced since the Edo Period, they continue to be hand-made in the Tohoku region of northern Japan. Distinct features help experts distinguish where they were crafted and by whom.
* Our Grandparent Kokeshi Dolls are painted with matching robes of two different colors. Details are hand-painted, like their smiling lips and apple cheeks.
* Our Samurai Kokeshi Doll has two swords painted into his obi and a traditional, top-knot hairstyle.
