Prachtige 5-delige collectie handgemaakte houten Kokeshi...

A truly beautiful and high-quality ensemble of five traditional, vintage Japanese wooden folk art dolls (Mingei), carefully selected and sourced from leading master craftsmen of the Showa period. This unique collection combines the elegant aesthetics of Kokeshi dolls with the powerful symbolism of the Daruma (bearers of luck). The collection consists of the following highlights: 1. Gorgeous Daruma set by Shido Shozan (1932-1995) A harmonious duo of two egg-shaped Daruma dolls, beautifully glossy lacquered with the natural, swirling flames of the wood grain preserved. Shido Shozan is one of the absolute great masters of modern creative Kokeshi art (Sōsaku Kokeshi) and winner of the prestigious Prime Minister's Award. These dolls display his masterful, expressive painting style with the intense, upward-looking gaze and fine details. 2. Large wood-carved Daruma sculpture by Shinobu Suizan An impressive, solid wood masterwork executed in the refined Harusame-bori (spring carving) technique. The artist Shinobu Suizan deliberately used no paint; instead he created deep, precise grooves in the light wood, allowing shadow play to give Daruma its bright, characteristic expression. On the belly is the meaningful Kanji character 忍 (Shinobi / Nintai) deeply carved, meaning "Patience, endurance and spiritual perseverance." On the side with the original mark. 3. Exclusive 'Pair' Kokeshi set (Tsugaru style) by Masafumi Abo & Chiaki Abo Two slim, highly expressive Kokeshi dolls of 18 cm and 26 cm tall, from Nuruyu Onsen (Aomori Prefecture). The left doll is signed by the renowned craftsman Masafumi Abo (born 1983) and the right doll is signed by his wife, the craftswoman Chiaki Abo. This makes it a very rare and affectionate set, made by a married pair of artisans. The dolls stand out for their bright, hand-painted Daruma faces on the trunks, inspired by the local Aomori Nebuta festivals. All objects are in very good, authentic vintage condition with only minimal, age-related signs of use that add to the unique character of these objects (see photos for an accurate impression). A splendid and extremely complete opportunity for the serious collector of Japanese art and design! There are no import charges for shipments within the European Union! The item will be carefully packed and shipped. Please note that the packaging is done by a private individual and not by a professional service, so perfect packaging quality cannot be guaranteed. Thank you for your understanding.
