dolls
Description / Abstract:
The doll depicts the standing figure of a woman. From the position of her hands, she may originally have held an umbrella. Her jacket is blue and ties with a knotted cord; fragments of a patterned material appear to have covered it originally. She wears very high geta (clogs). She has a broad obi (sash) in a straw color and a brown kosode (short sleeved) kimono, under which are several more layers in contrasting colors. Her hairstyle is simple, pulled back with a tegara (crepe cloth) at the crown of her head.
