THANK YOU FOR LOOKING. PLEASE VISIT MY OTHER LISTINGS OF ANTIQUE AND CONTEMPORARY JAPANESE ART.Buy several and save – please feel free to inquire. I do consolidate shipping.Master Kunio Miyagawa 宮川邦夫 (1933- ), Gunma Prefecture, Japan.This elegant, 9-inch sosaku kokeshi fashions a gorgeous kimono in lightly coated crimson red, decorated with plum blooms etched with woodburning tools. The doll is made from dense wood (likely the praised Zelkova tree) and feels solid and heavy in one's hand - a contrast to the light, delicate feeling it conveys. The wood grain shines through the paint coat, giving the kimono a luxurious look.A highly regarded sosaku kokeshi artist, Miyagawa-san is a recipient of many distinctions, including Prime Minister's Loan Award and the Minister of International Trade and Industry Award.
