CURIOUS HEAD (Dealer: titcoRet) – Originally a block for making hat coated with textile (made of compressed paper and wooden stand), then peeled the covered textile off and added such hand-written eyes in the later years. Early 20th century, Japan. In such used condition with aged deterioration, with collapse at the top of head and some damage as is. Fine skin with ‘gofun’ white pigment, like ‘iki-ningyo’ lifelike doll’s. approx. H 24cm (9.44in)
