Japanese Hime Daruma doll from Matsuyama. This is empress Jingu Kogo. These brocade roly poly dolls usually come as a couple representing the empress Jingu (dressed in red) and her husband Chuai (dressed in dark colors). But this one is still single. Her face is plastic and her body seems to be styrofoam covered with fabric. You can read more about the story of empress Jingu here.
