Vintage sosaku kokeshi doll shaped as agoblet, which makes this piece especially unique and artistic. This whimsical and eye-catching creative kokeshi doll features a design looks like the Otafuku (お多福)—a traditional symbol of good fortune, joy, and abundance in Japanese folklore.
Painted with the soft, rounded face with a gentle expression and stylized hairstyle. Uniquely shaped like a goblet. Finished with the purple and white tassels tied with a cord, adding a decorative and festive touch.
This is a prime example of a sōsaku (creative) kokeshi, where the artist is free to explore abstract shapes, themes, and designs beyond traditional regional styles. The goblet form reflects this spirit of playful innovation.
