Could you resist these faces? I've been admiring kokeshi dolls for some time now (though I've never owned one). Their sweet expressions and delicate detail combined with their storied past make them irresistible, I think. While we were away, we stopped in a shop that had a great collection of these vintage dolls, and it was hard not to leave with the whole shabang. In fact, I was originally going to buy one...and we see how well that turned out. I'm usually not a doll fan, but these girls are different. They're sweet, but not precious. They're cute, but not cutesy. They just work. Anyway, I've just added one of these little girls to the shop, along with a chalet music/jewelry box and an Enid Collins box bag (apparently to celebrate all things wooden!) Stop by, if you'd like! Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
I love these! What an awesome find!
