Jizo creative Japanese kokeshi doll
Creative kokeshi doll, in the shape of a Jizo, carved in wood.
The Jizo are a Buddhist deity who are prayed to for the care of travellers and children.
It is believed that the Jizo even take care of the souls of unborn children, so in Japan, stone votive statuettes in the form of Jizo are often found next to Buddhist temples. As protectors of children, they are often seen wearing red beanies, scarves or bibs.
A beautiful textured surface is got by drawing the lines with the pyro-engraving technique.
