We will be selling various handmade stuffed animal creations by the late Sachiko Tanaka, a Kyoto artist. All items are commissioned by the artist's family. These are from the highly-detailed "Miniature Vegetable Garden" series, and you'll be amazed by their delicacy and exquisite craftsmanship when you hold them. These works were exhibited in solo exhibitions for a while and were then carefully preserved by her family. These items are about 30 years old, so they are not brand new as you would buy in a store. However, they have a warm, comforting feel. You will find them to be wonderful, soulful works that you can display and enjoy without ever getting tired of them. The artist selected the fabrics one by one, dyed them by hand, drew intricate lines, and created these works after a painstaking process. As she was from Kyoto, the creations include vegetables unique to Kyoto. The price may be a bit high, but we are confident that these are high-quality items that you won't regret purchasing. The items will be shipped individually, without baskets. A realistic, large-sized watermelon. Please be careful not to put it in the refrigerator. You might mistake it for a real one. You couldn't buy it at this price at an exhibition. Please use an 8cm lighter or a measuring tape as a size guide. Shipping will be from Tokyo.
