Japanese Art and Tradition

A heartwarming collaboration between Papanda and Japan’s refined craftsmanship—renowned for its precision and delicate artistry.
This wooden kokeshi doll brings comfort and calm with just a glance.

 

Rounded and charming—meet the “Papanda Kokeshi”

Shaped with a plump, cylindrical silhouette, this kokeshi captures the adorable essence of Papanda.
It’s packed with cuteness and gentle warmth, perfectly blending the soft texture of wood with the world of the original mid-length animation by Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata. Just looking at it brings a sense of peace.

 

A Symbol of Happiness and Protection

Kokeshi dolls are believed to have originated in the Edo period.
One theory is that they were created as healing charms, blessings for a bountiful harvest, and souvenirs for children.

Even today, the wish for daily happiness and well-being remains the same.
Kokeshi carry feelings of celebration and encouragement, connecting hearts and delivering warmth to loved ones.

A kokeshi is a form of a wish—an amulet that stays close in everyday life.
It blends naturally into any room's decor, and above all, its round and chubby form is simply adorable.

 

A Kokeshi for All Ages

Whether you're a Papanda fan or someone wishing happiness for a child,
this kokeshi makes a perfect gift for birthdays, baby showers, or simply as a heartfelt present.
