The slightly concave torso with neat shoulders is decorated with a “Kasanegiku” pattern, created by drawing multiple chrysanthemum flowers.
Kokeshi (こけし, 小芥子), are simple wooden Japanese dolls with no arms or legs that have been crafted for more than 150 years as a toy for children.
Most interpretations about Kokeshi are centered around children, with some believing that Kokeshi represent the wish for a healthy child, and others that they bring children closer to the mountain spirits. Many people also agree that they were originally exchanged as tokens of friendship, with messages concealed within.
