Their rounded heads are set above unusually long, slender necks, giving the figures a graceful and almost sculptural silhouette. The faces are painted with fine, restrained features—narrow downcast eyes, tiny red lips, and small red ribbon-like details at the sides of the hair—creating a calm and gentle expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lily has long been appreciated in Japan for its elegant form and pure appearance. In art and seasonal decoration, lilies often evoke refinement, purity, grace, and the beauty of summer, making the floral motif especially suited to the quiet elegance of these figures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike traditional kokeshi associated with fixed regional lineages, Sōsaku Kokeshi developed during the 20th century as a freer artistic form, allowing makers to experiment with proportion, surface treatment, carving, and decorative themes. This pair reflects that creative spirit beautifully, combining the warmth of turned wood with a distinctly modern, elongated design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 5 x 5 x 16cm (L)\u003cbr\u003e2 x 2 x 6cm (S)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"≈15cm","offer_id":58246957498699,"sku":"K15174","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/Cover_4003a0d7-a856-43d0-9525-f1acdf98e42d.jpg?v=1787653198","url":"https:\/\/maisonkyo.be\/products\/k15174-sosaku-kokeshi-from-tohoku-%e6%9d%b1%e5%8c%97","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
