Carved and painted with care, this kokeshi features a stylized head with wide, playful eyes and a flat, bowl-like top that mimics the water-filled dish (sara) that is the kappa’s signature trait. Its slim, elongated body is hand-painted with a lakeside or river scene, depicting reeds and a bird, suggesting the creature’s natural habitat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kappa is a water-dwelling yokai (supernatural creature), said to inhabit rivers, ponds, and streams. It is considered a guardian of water, reflecting both the life-giving and dangerous nature of aquatic environments. In ancient beliefs, it was sometimes revered as a kami (spirit) of water and agriculture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe doll’s rustic woodgrain and slightly aged finish give it a nostalgic charm, reminiscent of regional souvenir shops from mid-century Japan. The bold, cartoon-like facial expression contrasts playfully with the more subdued naturalistic painting on the body, reflecting a fusion of folk art and humor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 4.5 x 4.5 x 13cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/article\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"≈15cm","offer_id":53722821722443,"sku":null,"price":19.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/template_1_cad716b6-7d7d-439b-852d-4eb959870a31.jpg?v=1761325647","url":"https:\/\/maisonkyo.be\/de\/products\/k15090-japan-omiyage-kappa-kokeshi-doll","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
