Found this little girl today at the GW.
How adorable is she :)
I'm not sure if the box and her go together but she looks adorable peeking out of it.
The box has a symbol painted on the top see pic#3, I have no clue on what that symbol means.
She has mark on her back side in red see pic#4
and a sticker on bottom "Woody Craft Made in Japan" along with Japanese writing.
I know there is a lot of collectors here on CW that know more than I.
So any info would be wonderful.
She makes me smile ;)
I have some Kokeshi dolls and love these as well!!
She is beautiful....I dream of finding one as lovely1
Really adorable
Cute!! I have 2 with bobble heads! Do not know history, but with box is more special!! Don

Hi melaniej your beautiful Kokeshi is by Usaburo. It doesn't typically come with a box someone may have created one to match it - soul

Thank you :)
Glad you stopped in and provided detailed info.
I think I have a new habit.....they are so adorable! Grab them every time I see one in the second hand stores.
Great to collect because of the size. I have put the work out if any of my friends find these to buy them for me ;)
melaniej, your very welcome, they are a treat to collect and I'm always surprised at the places they show up. I like the choice of your words, "Habit" sounds much better than mine, "addiction" they can easily become one! Hope to see what other Kokeshi treasures you find -Soul
