Wisdom
The inspiration for the Kimmidoll collection was the traditional Japanese Kokeshi doll, whose story begins in the last part of the Edo era (1603-1867). Kokeshi are small crafts of craftsmen from Tohoku in northern Japan, who were their additional source of income. These dolls began to conquer Japan as souvenirs of their stay at the source, they were presented as amulets of love and friendship, they symbolized youth, they reflected the beauty of girls. Thanks to the fact that they were painted by hand, every painting was different. Kokeshi's art went from generation to generation. Dolls from the Tohoku region are traditional Kokeshi, whose forms and elements of decoration have not changed over the course of two hundred years.
