David Bowie Kokeshi Doll by Sketch.inc for Lucie Kaas

Sketch.inc’s beautiful wooden dolls are hand-painted in England for Danish company, Lucie Kaas. These charming figurines are modern interpretations of traditional Japanese wooden Kokeshi dolls; re-envisioned as famous icons by Sketch.inc’s founder Becky Kemp.

This doll is inspired by British singer-songwriter David Bowie. 

David Bowie was much more than a traditional artist. His revolutionary artistry expanded and broke down boundaries of sound, vision and, sexuality. After the success of Ziggy Stardust, the song “Life on Mars?” was re-released in 1973 to wide acclaim. The video, and David’s bright red hair, blue eyeshadow, pink lips and blue suit, became iconic.
