These highly decorative marionettes in Baroque dress are perfect as a lovely decoration or a wedding gift.
The puppets in this category represent the Czech tradition in puppet making. These are mostly small series cast puppets, which are then hand decorated by sewing and painting.
The flamboyant clothes evoke the atmosphere of prom season. The hand-sewn costumes are elaborated to the smallest detail, all the frills and lace artfully complete the baroque atmosphere, the time that most favored ballroom and theatrical entertainment. The baroque is also the period when the puppet theater was developed - not only nobles wanted to go to performances, so puppets were a cheaper alternative to the theater for the general public.These puppets are produced in limited editions of a few pieces. The head, hands and feet are cast and hand-painted, and the body (skeleton) is made of linden wood. The puppet has traditional control, it is connected to the rocker by a solid wire, and classic threads are used to control the hands and feet.
Check out the beautiful and detailed work on gorgeous custom-made costumes. They are made of high-quality materials with a great emphasis on precise processing. High ornamentation is absolutely typical for this collection.
Thanks to the skill of the puppeteer, this wonderful pair was created.

The marionettes are beautiful! I think a very good value for the money. The only criticism I would have is that they arrived in a very beat up box. I think a sturdier box should’ve been used. They were wrapped in a lot of bubblewrap and that was the saving grace!
Stunning! These are so beautifully made. They will be cherished.
Beautifully crafted. Well packaged! Stunning!
