What are Dolls?

This essential book, written by the 11th generation Tokubei Yamada, is a must-read for learning about the spirit of dolls passed down through Yoshitoku.

Its greatest feature is that it covers not only technical theories but also the expression of no expression that dolls possess, historical backgrounds, and comparisons of Eastern and Western cultures through 100 episodes.

From the anecdotes of master craftsmen like Yoichi Kojima and Hinkō Hirata, you can grasp the contours of the passion poured in by artisans. Through comparisons with foreign dolls, you can re-recognize the unique aesthetics of Japanese dolls. This is a book that will cultivate a perspective for breathing new life into traditional forms while preserving them.
