The doll’s head is painted with a gentle expression and stylized hair, while the body features a glossy deep red lacquer adorned with gold calligraphy and a delicate depiction of a Japanese castle, a nod to Sendai Castle (Aoba-jō), a historic landmark associated with the legendary Date Masamune. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe flowing script across the body is written in a poetic tone, celebrating the tranquil atmosphere and historical depth of Sendai's famous hot springs and cultural icons. The contrast between the minimalist face and the ornate, symbolic body design creates a striking balance typical of mid-Showa era souvenir kokeshi. This piece is a beautiful example of how regional kokeshi incorporated local identity, blending traditional doll-making with proud references to local history, making it both a nostalgic keepsake and a collector's treasure. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize: 7 x 7 x 21.5cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"≈20cm","offer_id":53302227272011,"sku":"K20084","price":32.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/1750250583.webp?v=1756742490","url":"https:\/\/maisonkyo.be\/de\/products\/k20084-sendai-vintage-omiyage-kokeshi-doll","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
