Information

Creative Kokeshi, Takahashi, 14-1/4"

Sold
  • Creative Kokeshi, Takahashi, 14-1/4"
  • Creative Kokeshi, Takahashi, 14-1/4"

NAME: Creative Japanese kokeshi

MAKER: Akinori Takahashi

SIZE: 14-1/4" (36.3cm)

CONDITION: Couple of short, wide dents, a few smaller ones and an oval shaped flat dent on the back. On the right side of the obi is a series of short dents in a row but it looks like a wood flaw under the paint. Mid obi are some scratch marks but these, too, may be wood flaws.

NOTES: Mr. Takahashi was trained by his father, Hashime. The eyes were Hashime's trademark and the style has passed to his son.

Apparently the Takahashi's do not make a lot of kokeshi currently as they are busy with another folkcraft. Not a lot of Akinori dolls seem to be available.

The next size smaller doll (12") is also currently listed.
