Japanese Art Book - (Old / Rare)

Exquisite Fabric and Paper Dolls of Haru Mochizuki 

This is a very rare book displaying beautiful Japanese dolls made from traditional Japanese fabric, reed fibers, and washi (Japanese paper), as well as instructional material for their construction. The artist depicts Geisha, Maiko, and ordinary women in her beautiful creations.

This is the only book I have ever seen on this craft that combine these materials, and as you can see the results are exquisite.

There is a fabulouls collection of traditional hairstyles represented by the artist in Japanese reed fibers and washi.

The book was published in 1978, is rare, and is in very good condition. It is very well illustrated with photos, both color and black-and-white.
