The face of the doll peeks out from a diamond-shaped opening in the bark, a child warmly bundled against the snow, an homage to the Yukinko motif, symbolizing innocence, protection, and life in snowy regions of Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe doll is painted in a vivid palette: a black robe adorned with white patterns and a base of bright yellow and red accents, evoking traditional northern winter wear. The outer bark remains intact around the head and upper body, giving a natural, rustic aesthetic unique to birch wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Yukinko,” meaning “snow child,” is a beloved motif in northern Japan, especially in regions like Hokkaido and Tohoku, where winters are long and snowy. This doll captures the image of a cheerful child wrapped in warm clothing, braving the snow with joy and innocence. Often sold as a local souvenir near shrines or along temple paths, this Yukinko kokeshi is not just a decorative object but a piece of regional heritage and warmth, carved into wood. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 4 x 4 x 11.5cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56267661607243,"sku":"K10177","price":26.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/temple_ed257947-e74e-4564-9bf8-7323c76e411d.jpg?v=1767986566","url":"https:\/\/maisonkyo.be\/de\/products\/k10177-vintage-yukinko-kokeshi-itto-bori-%e4%b8%80%e5%88%80%e5%bd%ab","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
