元祖こけしおり
A set of 11 kokeshi doll-shaped bookmarks.
Kokeshi are wooden folk craft figures which originate in Tohoku in north-eastern Japan. There are several styles of kokeshi, each slightly different depending on the specific area in which they are made, yet they can all generally be characterized by their limbless bodies and delicately painted, eye-catching colours. This bookmark set from origami creators Cochae includes 11 different colourful kokeshi, each with their birthplace noted on the back so readers can enjoy discovering the unique details of each doll. The bookmark figures vary in size, with the largest at 8cm.
