These charming pincushions are a collaboration between Cohana and the Tsugaru Kokeshi Museum in Kuroishi city of Aomori Prefecture, Japan.

Kokeshi dolls originate from this area, where they were traditionally made as souvenirs for tourists to the region's famous hot springs - you can find out more about them in our blog post.

The traditional simplified shape of the doll with stylised hair and face has been interpreted by Cohana into these sweet pincushions.  Each one opens up to reveal a tiny wool fibre pincushion, complete with three needles from Meboso Hachirobei Shoten.

There is also a tiny magnet on the bottom to help pick up strays!  There are four colours to chose from - each pincushion is hand painted so each is unique!

Average height is approx 9cm, head width 3cm.  Comes gift boxed.

Please note that this is a sewing tool with sharp needles and magnets.  It should be kept away from young children and pets.

Beautiful pin cushion

I love this little pin cushion/needlecase. It’s fun and cute and the information about the origins of the style was interesting. Having beautiful tools for sewing adds to the fun of creating!

Delightful doll pincushion with Japanese needles

I love these pincushions. I bought three different colours in the end - blue yellow and green. Beautifully made with matching coloured fibre inside. Each has 3 high quality Japanese needles inside. There is also a magnetic bottom to pick pins and needles. I also read the very interesting blog about the history of these dolls.
