• WHAT YOU ACTUALLY GET - 10 PUPPET DOLLS (5 MALE, 5 FEMALE): This set is five male and five female musician figures in mirrored Rajasthani dress, each holding a different instrument. Made of cloth over a wooden frame. These are small, shelf-sized dolls, not life-size puppets - photos are shot close up, so go by the centimetres, not the picture. Every stitch is done by hand.
• DECORATIVE ITEMS FOR LIVING ROOM & SHOWCASE: Use the ten kathputli figures as decorative items for tv cabinet tops, a long console, a golu step or a showcase and they become the first thing guests ask about. They are the rajasthani decorative items families use to fill a shelf that looks bare - small enough to sit in front of books or beside a photo frame, and light enough to move while dusting. Nothing has to be fixed to the wall; they stand on their own on any flat surface.
• READY FOR GOLU AND THE FESTIVAL STEPS: Navratri golu and kolu displays need figures that read clearly from a distance, and ten figures fill a whole golu step on their own. The same pieces come out again for Dussehra, Diwali, a mandir corner at Ganesh Chaturthi, and for a wedding or sangeet table where a dulha dulhan style doll display is set up. Nothing on them is tied to one festival, so they are stored and reused every year.
• It travels well - light, small and not fragile in the way a clay or a stone piece is - which is why it is also bought in numbers as a Rajasthani souvenir to carry abroad. It arrives in a protective box, so no extra wrapping is needed to hand it over.
• HANDMADE IN MERTA CITY, RAJASTHAN BY JH GALLERY ARTISANS: Each piece is dressed, stitched and painted by hand, ten at a time so the pairs match in our own karigar workshop, so faces, turbans and fabric prints differ slightly from one to the next - that is the mark of real handwork, not a fault. Care: dust with a dry soft cloth or a soft brush. Keep it out of water and direct sun so the fabric colours hold.
