Stag beetle as a historical warrior? New marionette from the Zoo Sapiens collection by Jakub Fiala

Jan Roháč from Dubá - a historical figure from the Hussite wars in the Czech Republic was the inspiration for this beautiful puppet. It is mainly a pun because Roháč is a Czech translation of a stag beetle. And notice the details on the costume and armor - a recurring acorn motif. As same as before, this is also a pun. Dubá is a translation for the City of oaks.

Jan Roháč from Dubá was one of the main governors of Jan Žižka, the famous military leader of the Hussite warriors. The Stag beetle marionette has the attributes of Hussite warriors in its armor, as you can see.

The string puppet is on a wire, it has a traditional binding and great maneuverability.  The range of movement is determined by anatomy and the number of threads. And the aesthetic impression? Absolutely perfect, plus points for a fresh idea :)

Jan Roháč's marionette puppet will be carve to order. Jakub will be happy to make the order directly for you, due to the full capacity, count on the production takes 3 to 4 months from ordering.

My marionette-making workshop was the most fun I had during my visit to Prague! Everyone at Czech Marionettes was incredibly welcoming and encouraging. Lucy helped me to put the puppet together while another artist helped me to mix the paint. I love how it turned out! I wanted to do something different yet quintessentially Czech while I was here and this was the perfect choice! If you like arts and crafts and friendly people, you’ll enjoy this workshop. Sadly marionette theater performances are disappearing from Prague. But the talented people who carry on the traditions and artistic crafts are still here and they will gladly introduce you to this wonderful tradition.

Amazing! This little fellow is crafted with skill, love, and whimsy. I have several of the marionettes and each and everyone is a work of art. Can’t recommend enough; adore!
