    Found this little girl today at the GW.
    How adorable is she :)
    I'm not sure if the box and her go together but she looks adorable peeking out of it.
    The box has a symbol painted on the top see pic#3, I have no clue on what that symbol means.
    She has mark on her back side in red see pic#4
    and a sticker on bottom "Woody Craft Made in Japan" along with Japanese writing.

    I know there is a lot of collectors here on CW that know more than I.
    So any info would be wonderful.

    She makes me smile ;)

      Hi melaniej your beautiful Kokeshi is by Usaburo. It doesn't typically come with a box someone may have created one to match it - soul

      Thank you :)
      Glad you stopped in and provided detailed info.

      I think I have a new habit.....they are so adorable! Grab them every time I see one in the second hand stores.
      Great to collect because of the size. I have put the work out if any of my friends find these to buy them for me ;)

      melaniej, your very welcome, they are a treat to collect and I'm always surprised at the places they show up. I like the choice of your words, "Habit" sounds much better than mine, "addiction" they can easily become one! Hope to see what other Kokeshi treasures you find -Soul
