This is a Japanese bisque doll, commonly known as "Yamato," from FY NIPPON, famous for Nene-chan and Hiko-chan. While FY is known for baby dolls, this one is a small, young lady type. The body joints are unusual, using metal springs, which make a squeaking metal sound when moved. The head is complete, with no cracks or chips. The sleep eyes function, but there are signs of a previous repair, with some peeling of the wax on the eyelids. Stuffing has been added and the eye sockets sealed with a pate to prevent the eyes from falling out. This will be sent as is. The body is intact and has a nice sheen. Aside from some minor repainting, it appears to be in good condition. The outfit is the original vintage cotton separate dress. A hand-made human hair wig suits her well, so I will include it. She is 43cm tall. She has a gentle atmosphere and would look good in a kimono. She doesn't look out of place next to a Japanese Ichimatsu doll. Truly made in Japan.
