• 

NAME: Creative kokeshi nodders

SIZE: 7 & 7-1/2" (18 & 19cm)

CONDITION: Nice large nodders but they have a lot of condition issues. They are being sold as is so please ask if you have any questions.

Both dolls have a thick coat of varnish which is crazing (cracking) and discoloring (whitish/yellowish). They both have gouges, dents, varnish and paint missing. They both origninally had ties (strings) attached to metal loops. One of the female's loops is missing and a staple was used, but not in the correct position. Bark was left intact around the middle of the bodies and some of that is gone. That was missing at the time of creation as the bare wood was varnished, however, some of the varnish is gone now too.

The male has white paint smeared on top of his head.

The female is in worse condition. She has much more paint missing including her base and obi, which are now bare. Her kanzashi is gone and she has a crack in her base.

NOTES: The charge on these is covering my costs only. Please keep in mind that they weigh 3 pounds boxed and the buyer is responsible for the total cost of shipping. They will fit in a flat rate box so the shipping cost will be $10.70 plus $.70 for delivery confirmation or $11.40.

BEFORE MAKING ANY PURCHASE in this collection, please read "terms of purchase".
