This elegant kokeshi by Kato Tatsuo is titled つゆ草 (Tsuyukusa), after the delicate Asiatic dayflower. The slender figure is decorated with softly painted dayflower blossoms and foliage, their blue and green tones standing out against the warm natural wood. Her serene expression and elongated form create a refined composition that captures the quiet, seasonal beauty associated with the tsuyukusa flower.
Asiatic dayflower has also been used historically as a natural blue dye and this plant is associated especially withsummer and early autumn.
