Kokeshi dolls are a classic and traditional Japanese craft that started back in the Edo period (1804-1830) in Tohoku, Japan.
The Kokeshi dolls were originally made as toys for children. The red color that often recurs on them was supposed to be a protection against bad luck and evil influence. They are therefore often used as gifts for babies and children, in the wish for a good upbringing.
The kokeshi dolls symbolize friendship and love, and are a nice gift to give to a loved one.
