Description: Thank you for looking. Please visit my other listings of contemporary and antique Japanese art. Authentic vintage Japanese dento ("traditional") Kokeshi figurine. Signed by the artist. The head moves due to the bobble-head construction (which is considered a premium feature - the technique of fitting the protrusion of the head into the hole in the body while turning the wheel is something only a skilled kokeshi craftsman can do). This is a large kokeshi doll, measuring approximately 13 inches in height and weighing 2 lbs (33 cm and 880 g). Head diameter is 3.9 inches (9.8 cm). It will be a visible accent in your home. The figurine is in excellent condition for its age. Dento, or "traditional", kokeshi have been produced mostly in the Tohoku district in northeastern Honshu, Japan. Traditional kokeshi is characterized by its distinct style that remains little changed. #40
