Japanese Gosho Ningyō with Samurai Attire,
Signed by the 10th Generation Ningyo Artist Rozon. This master work is the results of ten generations and three centuries of ningyo artists. Unfortunately, it
seems it is the end of the line for this studio. The children are not
interested in continuing, which we think is sad. This Gosho is one of the most
amazing examples of 20th century Japanese art. It features so many wonderful
examples of great Japanese art forms. The face is just beautiful with inset
eyes and fine gofun finish. 25h x 19w inches, 63.5h x 48w cm.

A very special early 20th century version of the Japanese interpretation of
a Western doll, probably inspired by the Friendship Doll Exchange in 1929,
when the United States gifted Japan with several hundred western dolls. This
doll is very rare and a great find for the serious doll collector. She holds a
wonderful stylized dog and makes a charming impression along with her
great detailing. An important period piece. Doll Height: 20 inches, 51cm;
Case Dimensions: 27.5h x 11w x 9d inches, 70h x 28w x 23d cm.
