Japan Vintage Kokeshi Blog. Description Very small (please see size information below) lovely Japanese wooden kokeshi doll.
This pretty doll is less than 40 years old and is in fair condition with marks and scratches from handling and discoloration and stains from age and display. This is a “naruko” style kokeshi with a special neck joint which allows the doll to squeak when the head is turned. This clever design was developed long ago by craftsmen seeking a way to cause the dolls cry like a baby.
