The third in our series of traditional kokeshi with beautifully aged, well-loved patinas, this 9.5" doll by an unknown artisan is priced slightly higher than its siblings — a reflection of its slightly better overall presence while still carrying the honest, characterful wear that makes these pieces so compelling to collectors.
Scratches, splotchy paint, and visible dirt are all part of the story here. This is a doll that has been part of someone's life for decades, and it shows in the most endearing way.
Condition: Fair. Scratches, splotchy paint, and visible dirt. A charming well-loved patina and aged appeal.
