This hand charm represents bliss. The Kokeshi monk is a protective deity of children. With its just under 12 cm in height, he is one of the smaller Kokeshi in our range. This gives him his extremely endearing nature.

The figure is 11.5 cm high and likes to stand very close to the owner.

"Kokeshi: wooden figure monk"

The very smoothly worked surface quickly tempts everyone to take our monk in his hands and heart. Although small in stature, he radiates protection and security. Maybe that's why he turned out so short, because the monk is quite content with smaller locations and would like to be the protective companion. The wood from which this Kokeshi is made spends up to 12 months in the drying sun. After the drying process, the Japanese artist thoroughly shapes and polishes, lovingly paints the figure by hand and finishes it with a layer of natural lacquer.

Unique, slight deviations from the picture are possible.

Sehr schöne Kokeshi
Mit sehr viel Freude habe ich den Kokeshi-Mönch geschenkt bekommen. Die Oberfläche der Holzfigur ist sehr schön, sehr glatt und detailreich verarbeitet. Die Figur liegt sehr gut in der Hand.

Nun steht der liebe Mönch zuhause auf meinem Schreibtisch und sorgt dort für eine gelassene, schützende und ruhige Atmosphäre.
