With its restrained palette, delicate expression and softly modelled form, this piece beautifully reflects the refined aesthetic traditionally associated with Hakata dolls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHakata dolls originate from the Hakata area of Fukuoka, Kyushu, and are traditionally made from finely worked clay. The craft became especially celebrated for its exceptionally smooth surfaces, naturalistic modelling and carefully painted facial features. Figures of elegant women, or bijin (美人), became one of the best-known subjects of Hakata doll making.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis particular figure is especially charming for its almost monochromatic appearance. The woman wears a flowing white kimono, decorated sparingly with small stylised chrysanthemum-motifs. Her long hair and traditional coiffure are sculpted in the same pale finish, giving the entire figure a wonderfully calm and understated presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe holds a small folding fan (sensu 扇子) close to her chest, while the sweeping sleeves and overlapping layers of the kimono create gentle movement throughout the composition. Her softly closed eyes and faint smile give her a serene, contemplative expression characteristic of many traditional Japanese bijin figures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 8 x 5 x 13cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58136691147083,"sku":"FT544","price":9.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/Cover_575ef745-2212-4c84-8978-f2b88ad4f899.jpg?v=1786779806","url":"https:\/\/fr.maisonkyo.be\/products\/ft544-hakata-ningyo-clay-doll-%e5%8d%9a%e5%a4%9a%e4%ba%ba%e5%bd%a2","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
