ANATOMY OF A KOKESHI

British artist Becky Kemp’s handmade Japanese- style wooden dolls are basically the ultimate tchotchke for the fashion set. (After all, why buy a Chanel pocketbook when you could have Coco herself in your pocket?) We asked the brush behind Sketch.inc for the deets on these tiny treasures ($85 each, sketchinc.bigcartel.com).

What a pair “Karl and Coco

never met in real life, so it’s nice to see them side by side on my workbench.”
