The head is finished in a deep black with sharply defined hairline edges, a signature look of the Yamagata lineage. Its softly expressive face is rendered with simple, fine brushwork — a calm and subtle smile paired with upward-curving eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHayasaka Denkichi began his career in woodcraft in 1950 and started producing kokeshi dolls from 1967, drawing inspiration from his mentor Hiraga Sadazo. Though not a prolific producer, Denkichi’s works are admired for their thoughtful simplicity and quiet presence, reflecting his reserved personality. This kokeshi stands as a graceful example of the Yamagata aesthetic — refined, balanced, and imbued with personal warmth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 7 x 7 x 26cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"≈25cm","offer_id":56103588528459,"sku":"K25096","price":40.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/temple_ee773fe1-01cc-4178-9dbb-7bc5aaa4357d.jpg?v=1765553754","url":"https:\/\/maisonkyo.be\/products\/k25096-traditional-yamagata-kokeshi-by-hayasaka-denkichi-%e6%97%a9%e5%9d%82%e4%bc%9d%e5%90%89","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
