Boys' Festival Small Resting Gosho Doll Gift for Her serve cold water or shochuThis adorable doll is made in the image of a gosho doll which was a type of doll favored by the court nobles of ancient Kyoto. These dolls are characterized by their large, rounded heads, and chubby little bodies which reflect the aesthetic valued during the Edo period (16031868 CE). The doll is leisurely lying down on his belly with one knee bended. His translucent white skin is beautifully created with unglazed porcelain lending an air of realism.
