{"product_id":"st-ejikogr4","title":"Ejiko-Kokeshi – Camellia and Chrysanthemum – 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 an unmistakable boldness of colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe bowl glows in deep orange. Across the outer wall, three hand-painted motifs spanning the cycle of the seasons: Ume branches in red and black – calligraphic, linear; a Tsubaki blossom in deep red with green leaves and a yellow centre; Kiku chrysanthemums in red and dark green, rendered with a broad brushstroke, almost painterly. At the upper edge, a Rokuro-Moyo band in red and green. Viewed from above, the bowl reveals its true face: wide concentric rings in red, orange, and green – turned, rhythmic, abstract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNestled inside sits the Kokeshi figure: a round head, closed eyes in the Fuse-me style, a delicate smile, rosy cheeks. The black hair crown bears red decorative blossoms along the hairline. From above: matt black, with a single red circle at the centre – reduced to the absolute minimum.\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\u003eBowl: orange ground, three motifs – Ume, Tsubaki, Kiku\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRokuro-Moyo band at the upper edge: red and green\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKokeshi figure: Fuse-me eyes, Yajiro hair crown\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRokuro-Moyo rings from above: red, orange, green\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  \u003cli\u003eHandcrafted\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. 6.5 cm\u003c\/dd\u003e\n  \u003cdt\u003eDiameter\u003c\/dt\u003e\n  \u003cdd\u003eapprox. 6.5 cm\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n","brand":"Seiko Sato | 佐藤誠孝","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64802928427357,"sku":"ST-EJIKOGR4","price":89.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0930\/3814\/9981\/files\/ses-ejiko-cover.png?v=1780142777","url":"https:\/\/punkeshi.com\/en\/products\/st-ejikogr4","provider":"Punkeshi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
