About🏅

Maruyama Hougetsu’s Kokeshi carry the innocence of childhood in their forms, round faces, unadorned lines, and a softness that feels both playful and serene. His style leans toward the simple: no elaborate robes or ornate detailing, just honest wood and gentle presence.

Each piece feels like a quiet companion, echoing a child’s quiet gaze or a fleeting smile. They’re not dramatic, but they linger. 

Though his biographical details remain elusive, collectors are drawn to his work. We hope more information becomes available to us. If you have a photo of the artisan or have more information please contact us KokeshiTrends @ gmail.com
