The figures have a beautifully elegant, low form with softly rounded volumes. Their faces are serene and minimal, with closed eyes and a calm, understated expression. The wide, dark-glazed hair sections have a fine textured relief, while the kimono forms are finished in soft grey-green and beige tones with natural speckles in the glaze.

Subtle gold accents on the fans and kimono details give the set a refined, festive character. The combination of raw ceramic texture, soft colours and delicate glossy details creates a distinctly Japanese atmosphere: quiet, elegant and poetic.

The underside is covered with washi paper and bears a maker’s stamp. The stamp is visible, but cannot be reliably identified.

The set is in perfect condition. The original box is included. See less
