Traditional kokeshi set in Yamagata style

These Yamagata style kokeshi belong together, they are family! The small kokeshi is by master Kotaro Kobayashi (1936-), the high kokeshi doll was made by his cousin Seitaro Kobayashi (1926-2005), both sons of famous woodworkers in Muikamachi, Yamagata Prefecture.
