Kokeshi doll

Kokeshi dolls are part of Japanese folk art. These traditional Japanese wooden dolls and figurines, created during the Edo period (1600 - 1868) and originating from the Tohoku region, were originally made for children. According to popular beliefs, they were also believed to transmit messages that they hid in their trunk. People who visited Onsen (hot springs) in Tohoku used to buy them as souvenirs. These little dolls were also a source of income for the local people during the winter months when farming was not very convenient.
