Antique Puppets




 A 18th Century (1760-65) puppet of a Spaniard middle age warrior. The structure is completely made of timber, the legs are cover of metal (like a medieval armor), the timber torso is cover of fabric with a kind of natural  filling underneath straw alike . It has been sculpted with taste and both his hands are very delicate and graceful. His head is unfortunately missing. This is a master piece, the oldest we've ever own. Size approx 1.07cms H torso W 21cms. France
