Kokeshi are traditional Japanese wooden dolls with a simple cylindrical shape, a round head, often adorned with hand-painted flower motifs. Originating in northern Japan, they are crafted from fruit trees, usually cherry wood. The charm of kokeshi lies in their simplicity, making them valuable representations of folk art, cherished as collectibles and decorative items. Each region in Japan has its unique style, resulting in a variety of designs and color schemes.
