Kokeshi Dolls are wooden dolls that have their origin in the North-East of Japan. They are made of young, white wood called 'Mizuki'. 
In the Edo Period (1603-1867) they were served as souvenirs for tourists visiting the hot springs. From Taisho (1912-1926), however, they were more and more considered as an independent art form.
