"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.

Usaburo Kokeshi
Kokeshi dolls from the Usaburo workshop are particularly high-quality and are considered among the most beautiful by many. The family-owned business was founded by Usaburo Okamoto, born in 1917 in Shinto. The workshop is characterized by a special passion and high craftsmanship. The founder, Usaburo Okamoto, has won many awards for his work. His employees and some family members are also proud recipients of awards for their creations. They say that their love for their homeland is the source from which they draw their creativity.
The Kokeshi dolls are meticulously handmade. The artisans have studied the characteristics of various types of wood. The woods used for the Kokeshi are carefully selected and combined. The tactile sensation created by the fine craftsmanship is impressive.
