This creative Sosaku Kokeshi doll, titled Shōjo (少女 - “Girl”), is crafted by Master Issetsu Kuribayashi (一雪, 1924–2011), one of the pioneering figures of the creative kokeshi movement.
The piece features his signature carved, rounded bob hairstyle and a tranquil facial expression with eyes closed in serene contemplation and subtle red accents for the nose and lips. Turned from richly grained natural wood, her bell-shaped body depicts a kimono decorated with deeply carved, textured floral patterns in bold red and black pigments. Demonstrating Kuribayashi’s award-winning woodworking and artistic craftsmanship, this elegant doll comes complete with its original presentation box displaying its title (Shōjo) and the artisan’s mark (Issetsu).

This creative kokeshi doll by renowned craftsman Hajime Miyash*ta (宮下はじめ) is titled “Wakakusa” (若草), which translates to “Young Grass” or “Fresh Herbs”.
The doll features a distinct minimalist silhouette, highlighted by a rich, deep-green hairstyle tied in a high bun atop her serene, closed-eyed face. She is adorned in a matching dark green kimono detailed with delicate, hand-carved crosshatch lattice patterns (kasuri-style motif) and subtle red accents. Accompanied by its original wooden sign (tomobako/tatefuda) and box labels, the set explicitly notes Miyash*ta’s prestigious recognition as a winner of the Prime Minister’s Award (内閣総理大臣賞), making it a refined example of modern Japanese wooden art.

This charming vintage Sōsaku (creative) Japanese kokeshi doll showcases a smooth, rounded pillar-like shape with a sweet, sleeping facial expression tucked under sleek black hair.

Handcrafted by award-winning artisan Keiji Miyama, the doll’s title “Warabe” translates to “Child,” capturing a playful yet serene aesthetic that highlights both traditional craftsmanship and modern wood-carving artistry.

We kept this beautiful Tsuchiyu kokeshi lamp by Yukinori Chennoh for ourselves for a long time! But when a good customer messaged us looking for something special, we showed her the lamp. It was love at first sight; we knew it was going to the right person, so we were able to part with it! ❤️

An exceptional hand-crafted wooden kokeshi by renowned Japanese artist Sato Kouson, known for his expressive and symbolic contemporary designs.

Rather than the traditional floral decoration, this remarkable piece is adorned with a vertical composition of Daruma figures, the iconic Japanese symbols of perseverance, resilience, determination, and good fortune. Each colorful Daruma displays a distinct facial expression and is accompanied by Japanese calligraphy expressing virtues and life lessons, creating a visual journey through different states of mind and personal growth.

The vibrant palette of red, yellow, blue, green, orange, and white contrasts beautifully with the natural wood grain, while Kouson’s bold brushwork and flowing calligraphy give the sculpture a lively, almost narrative quality. The smiling Daruma at the top symbolizes fulfillment and happiness, while the figures below represent the challenges and virtues encountered on the path toward success.

This work is an outstanding example of Sosaku Kokeshi (Creative Kokeshi), where traditional craftsmanship meets contemporary artistic expression. It is both a collectible work of Japanese folk art and a meaningful decorative sculpture.
