Kokeshi | Tommie Smith
At the 1968 Olympic Games, Tommie made history for breaking the 200m world record and for standing up against inequality. Tommie raised his arm on the victory stand in a silent prayer that is considered one of the most iconic images in sports history. His intention was to unite the world to fight together in the struggle for all human rights.

SKETCH.INC FOR LUCIE KAAS
The figures are pieces of art, made by specialized craftsmen – and women! It takes 43 careful processes of wood work and hand-painted design, so slight imperfections may be present. These are not defects but features that make every piece unique.
The Lucie Kaas Kokeshi universe celebrates pioneers, icons, and trailblazers to remind us of who we are and where we are going. Some modern versions have small messages within, but in Lucie Kaas's rendition, the Kokeshi Figures are the message.
Personal, Thoughtful and Unique. Kokeshis are traditional Japanese woods dolls with a world of folklore behind them. Exchanged as a token of friendship, these home decorations are seen as guardians of the home. These unique figures are collectable design objects for the contemporary home, perfect as a gift your loved ones – or yourself.
