Issetsu Kuribayashi's kokeshi are one of our favorites. The natural wood often has a predominant role in his kokeshi. This vintage kokeshi nicely illustrates that. It is quite rare that the green base color is still well preserved on this doll as it is often the fastest to fade. Same for the vivid orange color of the leaves. This kokeshi is still in its original box with the leaflet (not in the pictures)!
