Kokeshi dolls originate from Northern Japan. These handmade wooden dolls are thought to date back to the early 19th century. Kokeshi dolls have a spiritual significance with each one representing a wish, charm or hope, and they are collected as a lucky charm.
This contemporary range of Kokeshi Dolls have a more shapely body and added features such as hair. Each doll is dressed in an exquisitely patterned colourful kimono. |
