About Tonbō
Hello, welcome to Tonbō Dolls! ♥️
Tonbō Dolls are handmade Dolls Art created by artist Lígia Tôrres. A labor of love that began in 2012. Based in Tokyo, Japan, she meticulously crafts each doll using high-quality Japanese materials, drawing inspiration from Japanese culture.
"Tonbō" means dragonfly in Japanese. The dragonfly symbolizes change and transformation, concepts that have always been present in Lígia's life. It also reflects feminine aspects, representing the transformations women experience throughout life – themes Lígia explores through her art.
Doll Art is a form of art that creates unique and expressive dolls, handmade by artists who dedicate themselves to crafting pieces that transcend the traditional concept of toys. Each doll has its own personality, with facial expressions and poses that convey a wide range of emotions and narratives. Doll Art is appreciated as collectible objects, and their artistic expressions reflect the skill and creativity of the artists, enchanting people of all ages.
The Tonbō art pieces are articulated dolls, allowing them to be moved and posed in various positions: standing, sitting, lying down, and much more. Sometimes they even seem alive. But more than simple toys, Tonbō Dolls are elegantly sculpted and precisely articulated works of art. Each doll is adorned with different forms and themes, making them unique collectible pieces. The articulated dolls of Tonbō Dolls intrinsically capture aspects of our humanity, reflecting emotions and stories through their delicate expressions and postures.
With a dedication to quality and detail, each doll brings to life a world of fantasy and charm, transforming any collection into a treasure trove of narratives and beauty.
Lígia is continually seeking new inspirations for her dolls and regularly adds new products. Stay tuned for updates! Thank you for visiting the store and happy shopping! ♥️
