Own a small but powerful piece of Japanese folklore.

This handmade Namahage doll represents a centuries-old New Year tradition from Akita, Japan. In local belief, Namahage visit homes to remind children to work hard and live with discipline — symbolizing protection, guidance, and strong spirit.

Today, authentic Namahage souvenirs are increasingly hard to find outside Japan.

This piece stands approximately 12 cm tall and features: • A striking red face with expressive, fierce character
