Vtg Girl Festival Hina Matsuri Wooden Court Musician Doll 

This vintage Japanese wooden court musician doll wears a gorgeous light brown kimono coat with a family crest pattern on it and a small black hat. This is a quality hina doll made of silk and wood and the head is removable as it was handcrafted separately from the body with a wood base and gofun, a white chalk commonly used in crafting doll faces made from the shells of oysters, clams, etc. This doll sits on a wooden lacquered stand decorated with maki-e art on the front. This elegant doll is an excellent addition to any Hina doll collection.

**The head will be removed for shipping for the product’s safety.
