A kokeshi has its own car. This wooden toy is called Fuku-kuruma 福車.
This fuku-kuruma was made by SATO, Yasuhiro who is a Togatta style kokeshi
craftsman. 
He made a two-sides of doll, which has glaring daruma and smiling hime daruma.
We can enjoy the contrast in this toy.
This kokeshi can move forward with its wheels.  Fuku means ‘luck’ and kuruma is ‘car’ in Japanese.

This doll is possibly vintage. Due to age, this kokeshi has spots.
