Originally created as toys for children in 19th-century Japan, Kokeshi dolls have since become cherished symbols of craftsmanship and emotion — simple in form, yet rich in meaning.
Handmade by the talented artisans of Usaburo Studio in Gunma Prefecture, each kokeshi begins as a block of mizuki wood, then carefully shaped, polished, and hand-painted with precision.
This elegant doll features a soft, rounded silhouette and a serene smile inspired by the Japanese proverb “Nana korobi, ya oki” (七転び八起き) — “Fall seven times, stand up eight.” It represents resilience and perseverance in the face of life’s challenges. The bright red kimono, adorned with white plum blossoms, adds a touch of springtime grace to this timeless figure.
With its balanced design and gentle warmth, this kokeshi is a meaningful addition to any home or collection.
Made in Gunma, Japan
