This rendition of Charlie Chaplin would bring life to any collection, and make even the most demanding collectors smile. Charlie is wearing a black bowlers hat and is carrying a very detailed wooden cane. Notice the quality of his hand-sewn suit. His shoes are hand-carved from wood as well. Not much more needs to be said about this one! All materials and paints used in the creation of this marionette are 100% enviro-friendly.
This marionette was hand-crafted by one of Prague's marionette masters, Richard Kuklik. As Prague remains one of the few cultural and historical epicenters of the marionette art, the tradition of creating detailed and expressive marionettes is still carried on by a select few. |
