A Japanese geisha doll wears an elaborate brocade silk kimono with gold floral decoration, a broad obi, and contrasting red accents. Her traditional nihongami hairstyle is dressed with ornaments, and a pink parasol rises beside her. The doll stands in a wooden glass-front display case with a decorative gold-patterned backing. The parasol has material loss. The accompanying Chinese semicircular storage basket has a woven exterior, a hinged lid, and brass-tone accents, including a round character medallion and a decorative clasp. Its curved form rests on shaped feet; one foot has a hairline fracture, and the rim has a visible split. The doll measures approximately 7" x 5.5" x 15" tall, its case 12.75" x 9.5" x 21.25" tall, and the basket 23" x 13" x 17" tall.
