Chinese puppets

$ 147.84

Availability: 100 in stock
  • Handmade: Yes
  • Condition: These are all antiques. The two larger puppets on each end in the group photo are about 21" tall. The one in the middle with the pink and teal outfit is 17". I purchased the two end puppets about 35 years ago, and don't remember where I got them. I had a puppet collection at the time. The one in the middle was a gift from my wife who found it in an antique store in Belmont Shore, California, also about 35 years ago. The puppet on the right had a tag on it that said circa 1870, but said costume was from later. I assume that applies to the puppet on the left as well as similar materials were used in its costume. All three have human hair. The middle puppet has hand-carved hands and shoes, and note the undergarments as well as the writings on the interior lining of the costume.
