The leaves are painted in a stylized palette of mint green, crimson, and black, giving the piece a folk-art vibrancy. Its slender body is adorned with a hand-painted branch bearing bright orange persimmons, a symbol of autumn, longevity, and good fortune.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Japanese folklore, unripe persimmons are astringent and sour, while ripe ones are sweet. This transformation is often used as a metaphor for gaining wisdom and mellowing with age. A ripened persimmon represents patience, humility and the value of experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this kokeshi apart is the white heart-shaped bib design painted on its upper torso—a motif often associated with innocence or maternal affection, possibly evoking a childlike or endearing quality. The doll’s face is delicately painted with a joyful, peaceful expression, and the black hair is styled with subtle decorative flourishes. The playful hand-painting, stylized seasonal motifs, and a warm wooden patina from age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: \u003cspan\u003e4 x 4 x 14cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"≈15cm","offer_id":53348481139019,"sku":"K15068","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/temple_e8b09a1c-3310-4ea1-a8a8-8bff5311d3fe.jpg?v=1757346510","url":"https:\/\/maisonkyo.be\/de\/products\/vintage-kokeshi-doll-of-persimmons","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
