Description

This is a wonderful example of the handmade village folk puppets from Asia. 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. Though the stories told by the marionette troupes were no doubt fascinating and entertaining, they served a very real occupation. This would be a wonderful addition to your collection. 24 Inches Tall 6 Inches Wide 3 Inches Deep AT BACARA WE STAND BEHIND ALL OF OUR MERCHANDISE.
