Kokeshi dolls are traditional Japanese wooden dolls that originated in the Tohoku region of northern Japan. They are typically handmade from wood and painted with simple designs, often featuring a round head and cylindrical body. Kokeshi dolls were originally created as children's toys but have since become popular collectibles, appreciated for their folk art charm and regional variations in style.

This particular doll appears to be a creative or modern interpretation of the traditional Kokeshi form, possibly influenced by mid-century modern aesthetics, as suggested by the "MCM" reference. The kimono design with floral patterns is a common motif, but the specific rendering and color palette can indicate the artist's style or the period of creation. These dolls are often signed by the artist, though no signature is visible in the provided image.
