This particular model showcases her iconic and highly refined style. The doll is made from solid wood, finished with a deep, dark stain that subtly reveals the natural grain. The kimono is beautifully decorated with deeply incised, vibrant orange-gold chrysanthemums (Kiku), the national symbol of Japan that stands for long life and nobility. The original gold sticker with her signature in flowing brush script (蓼華 作 - Ryoka saku, "Made by Ryoka") is in very good condition on the doll. The doll is in vintage condition with character. There are scratches and signs of wear on the wood, the colors of the carving are still brilliantly intense. (see the detailed photos for an accurate personal impression).
