Doll of Kintaro, the Wonder Child, seated of wood, coated with plaster painted in flesh-colour, it is scantily clad in a stomacher (haraate) of brown silk-crepe, stencilled in red and embroidered with green, white and yellow floss silks, green silk cord and gold thread. The head is partly shaved, as in the custom with small children in Japan; the hair is represented by three patches of black silk thread, one on the top of the head and two beside the ears, and by a wedge-shaped patch of black paint just above the forehead. The garment is cut to a point at the lower end, and covers the chest and the stomach; to the upper part of it is stitched a long band, which is tied in a bow behind; another band, tied in a bow in front, secures the garment at the waist. The stencilled pattern represents continuous scroll ornament, and the embroidery shows a design of peonies and chrysanthemums. To the front of the garment is stitched a fringed and pleated collar, woven in silver-gilt thread.
