Miniature Kokeshi
Miniature Kokeshi
An extraordinary Kokeshi doll from the renowned workshop of master craftsman Noboru Wagatsuma, embodying the centuries-old tradition of the Togatta style in its most refined form. Measuring just 6 centimetres in height, this doll captivates with its masterful brushwork, the characteristic Igeta pattern, and floral head painting—hallmarks of this traditional style.
The Igeta pattern, inspired by the wooden frame of traditional Japanese wells, symbolises stability and structure—values deeply rooted in Japanese aesthetics. In Togatta craftsmanship, this stylised lattice design has been used for generations.
The simple yet elegant Togatta style, combined with the doll’s gentle facial expression, makes this Kokeshi a timeless collectable. The artist’s signature further emphasises the authenticity and unique value of this handcrafted piece.
