- Material: Wooden. This is a Nipoppo doll, a wooden carving of the Ainu people. Nipoppo means "little wooden child" in the Ainu language, and it has been treasured as a charm to ward off evil and bring happiness. It is said that the people of Sakhalin Ainu in particular carved them from tree branches and trunks. Nipoppo dolls are often made in pairs, representing a harmonious couple and the prosperity of descendants. The dolls in the image are arranged to be close to each other, suggesting a couple. Also, some are hand-carved by inmates of Abashiri Prison, wishing for rehabilitation, and are famous as souvenirs from Hokkaido. Nipoppo dolls are loved by many people for their simple expressions and warm wood carvings. Slightly flawed: discoloration on one doll and a personal name written on the back of the base. The personal name cannot be shown in the image, but please check the discoloration in the image. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned, as it is stored at home. - Material: Wood - Design: Traditional Japanese Kimekomi doll - Features: Set of two, with a base - Color: Natural wood color - Style: Hand-carved decoration - Usage: Interior decoration - Size: Approximately 18cm tall Thank you for viewing. - Design: Sculptural shape - Color: Dark brown Thank you for viewing.
