Creative Kokeshi “Autumn Day” by Iguchi Satoru (井口悟) | 25 cm

This Kokeshi was created by Iguchi Satoru (井口悟), an artist within the sōsaku Kokeshi tradition. His work is characterized by strong forms and a refined, often seasonally inspired visual language.

This is a Kokeshi that immediately sets a mood.

The title Autumn Day feels very natural here. The deep tones and rich patterns evoke that moment when the light softens and colors take on a warmer, more subdued quality.

The form is slender and enclosed, drawing all attention to the surface. And that's where the richness lies: layers, nuances, and small details that only fully reveal themselves when you take a moment to look.

The dark hair balances the piece beautifully and gives the Kokeshi a calm, almost stately presence.

Due to its size, weight, and rich decoration, this piece belongs to the more expressive works within the sōsaku Kokeshi tradition. It feels less like a decorative object and more like a small artwork you consciously give a place in your home.
