Rare and harmonious set of five traditional Kokeshi dolls by Sakurai Shōji (桜井昭二), master of the Naruko lineage in Miyagi Prefecture.
Each doll is entirely handmade and painted with elegant black floral motifs; the serene faces are rendered with fine, expressive brushstrokes.
Dimensions largest & smallest: height 39 cm / 27 cm, diameter 12 cm / 8 cm.
All five pieces are signed by the artist on the base. The wood has developed a beautiful natural patina with warm amber tones, a soft sheen, and honest wear that reflect age and use.
An exceptionally rare find — early Kokeshi by a single master with identical decoration are seldom encountered as a complete set.
A powerful and authentic interior accent, highly sought after by collectors and interior designers.
