Description: This is a vintage, natural brown bobbed hair edition of the modern Japanese "Okappa Haircut" KOKESHI doll entitled "Rei-Shun" ("Spring Splendor"), dressed in a kimono with red and white plum blossom patterns on it. It was originally designed by famed kokeshi craftsmen/artists Usaburo Okamoto (1917-2009) and his son Yuji Okamoto, made by and at their studio Usaburo Kokeshi. Usaburo Kokeshi is a leading brand in the "creative kokeshi dolls" category, founded by the famed craftsman Usaburo Okamoto (1917-2009) and now headed by his son Yuji Okamoto (1948-), also known as Usaburo II. The term "creative kokeshi" refers to kokeshi made based on the creativity and innovative ideas of artists, without being bound by the shape and style of traditional Japanese kokeshi dolls. While traditional kokeshi dolls, which have been made throughout Japan for centuries, generally reflect traditional techniques and culture along with the wood of a particular region, creative kokeshi may go beyond these frameworks and incorporate a variety of materials, styles, and themes. *IMPORTANT*Your order will be shipped from Japan and may be subject to import taxes, fees, and customs duties, levied by the customs office of your country, and such fees vary according to the customs regulations there.
