Vintage Gumma kokeshi by Hajime Miyashita (1940-)

This elegant creative Japanese Kokeshi doll, titled 'Yangu Josei to tomoni Wasaga | Young Lady with Umbrella' by the artist Hajime Miyashita, features a graceful handcrafted wooden figure of a young woman holding a traditional closed umbrella (wagasa). Crafted with natural wood tones, the doll exhibits delicate, expressive facial features with closed eyes, a serene expression, and traditional black hair. Her slim wooden body is subtly decorated with subtle metallic/gold leaf accents and fine carved lines, topped by a distinctive patterned, cone-shaped umbrella angled gracefully over her head.
