Mine is a beautiful Geisha doll that my Grandma brought over from Japan. I've loved the doll for her beauty ever since I was a little girl. She's about 18'' tall and has real silk garments.
Both of my grandparents are American, but they were married at an Air Force base over there when my grandpa was stationed in Tokyo during the Korean War...and my dad was born there.
When she passed away, I received the doll since I was the oldest grandchild and also since my father was the one born over there. Grandma (and the doll) will always have a special place in our family history and my heart.
