Description

This is a fabulous Female Life Size Handmade Village Folk Puppet from Burma. Marionettes are distinguished from regular puppets by the fact that they are controlled by strings that are manipulated from above. This allows them a freedom of movement that is unmatched by other forms of puppetry, and this type of movement demands a great deal of skill from the person who is pulling the strings. In Asia, troupes of marionettes were commissioned and maintained by royalty. These marionettes served as a conduit between the ruler and his subject. This would be a wonderful addition to your collection or home.
