[About the product]
In Tonkachi, we have created Kokeshi of Lisa Larson and Eleonol Bostolom with the creative Kokeshi studio in Gunma Prefecture. This is Kokeshi of Donna's popular creature "Dog's Digby". The ears that standed with the Digby are expressed in a felt, and the fact that Donna is communicating the creatures created by Dona is truly a craftsman's skill. And the beard is irresistibly cute. Her POP color scheme is mixed with the Japanese atmosphere of Kokeshi's natural wood, and the surreal and mysterious atmosphere of the creature can be firmly felt from the face.
[Design]
As for the Kokeshi production process, it starts by having the artist's work to see the artist's work, and then the craftsman himself becomes a designer and recreates the work for Koshi. Looking at the finished sample, the artist makes a request and the craftsman corrects it. After repeating such a process several times, Kokeshi is finally completed. In many cases, the kokeshi of Donna progressed smoothly, as there were many things that were so good on the way. The word I got when I first showed the finished sample to Donna is a word of "Kawaii!" The only request was to adjust the position of the eyes. That's why "Donna Kokeshi" was completed with a beat. The presence is outstanding in a small but POP atmosphere. As an interior accent, it is cuteness that you want to put together.
[Comment from the staff]
In this "Donna Kokeshi", Digby -kun, the only one in front of him. The natural coloring with the texture of natural wood seems to be smooth to the interior that is aligned in natural colors. I like dogs so I chose this child first, but maybe ... but absolutely! Other children will welcome you soon.
