{"product_id":"st-ejikogr2","title":"Ejiko-Kokeshi Nemuri – Ume – Yajiro Tradition","description":"\u003cp\u003eA baby rests in its basket – sheltered, still, barely visible. The Ejiko form, originally inspired by the wooden carrying baskets in which children of the Tōhoku region were cradled during fieldwork, is here reduced to its emotional essence: protection, warmth, and a sense of being held. This Kokeshi variant has long been regarded as an expression of maternal care – and Hideyuki Sato carries that tradition forward with a handwriting entirely his own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe basket shows natural wood as its base tone – warm, unhurried. Horizontal Rokuro-Moyo bands in yellow, orange, red, and green articulate the outer wall in steady rhythm. Between them, a hand-painted Ume branch: several blossoms in red, black boughs, calligraphic and fuller than the season might suggest. Early spring, just before the last of the snow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNestled inside sits the Kokeshi figure: a round head with a straight fringe, closed eyes in the Fuse-me style, a delicate smile, rosy cheeks. Along the side, a small hand-painted motif – a bud on a branch. The black hair crown sits flat, with a clean, defined edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEjiko-Kokeshi in the Yajiro tradition\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBasket: natural wood base, Ume motif, Rokuro-Moyo bands in yellow, orange, red, and green\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKokeshi figure: Fuse-me eyes, straight fringe, bud motif\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWood: Mizuki (dogwood)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand-turned and hand-painted by Hideyuki Sato\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSigned by the artist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n  \u003cdt\u003eHeight\u003c\/dt\u003e\n  \u003cdd\u003eapprox. 7 cm\u003c\/dd\u003e\n  \u003cdt\u003eDiameter\u003c\/dt\u003e\n  \u003cdd\u003eapprox. 7 cm\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n","brand":"Hideyuki Sato | 佐藤英之","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64800697155933,"sku":"ST-EJIKOGR2","price":89.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0930\/3814\/9981\/files\/hs-ejiko2-cover.png?v=1780142140","url":"https:\/\/punkeshi.com\/en\/products\/st-ejikogr2","provider":"Punkeshi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
