Approximately 15cm tall. The artist's name is present, but I cannot identify it. Quoted from another site: This is a clay doll that originated in Sendai. Tsuchi-ningyo (clay dolls) were born in Tsutsumi, the same town as Tsutsumi-yaki (Tsutsumi ware). It is said that the potters of Tsutsumi-yaki began making dolls as a winter industry when the clay froze and they couldn't make pottery. One of the major characteristics of Tsutsumi dolls is their "red color." Craftsmen in the Edo period used "Suo" (sappanwood), an imported dye that was difficult to obtain in Japan under the national isolation policy, to dye the dolls. Currently, "Suo" is not used, and more colorfast pigments are used, but the technique of using vivid red in an impressive way is still inherited today.
