Japanese ningyō depicting a woman dressed in a traditional kimono.
The figure is notable for the carefully arranged costume and decorative detailing, which provide the principal visual interest of the piece. The earlier Yamazakura catalogue described the subject as a geisha; without further identifying evidence, it is more conservative to catalogue her simply as a woman in traditional dress rather than assign a specific social role.
No maker, school or firm date is presently recorded, and none is attributed here. Offered as a decorative example of Japanese figurative doll-making.
