Wooden Gentleman Puppet — Top Hat, Parisienne Style, 38 cm
A Parisian monsieur in a black tuxedo, forever tipping his top hat. We photograph him next to the Flamenco Dancer; they're clearly acquainted.
This wooden gentleman puppet captures the essence of Parisian theatre with a single, unmistakable gesture: arm raised, top hat tipping in a theatrical greeting. Dress him in his crisp black tuxedo and bow tie, and you have a piece that commands attention in any room. Move the arms and legs by hand into any pose—shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees all move with satisfying precision. Unlike typical puppets, this figure is fully articulated and designed for graceful posing on a shelf or hanging from the hook on its back.
Each puppet is precision-cut, hand-assembled, and finished in our workshop in Cherkasy, Ukraine. The design prints directly onto natural plywood—no paint, no decals—so the wood grain shows through the black, creating a distinctive two-tone character. He pairs beautifully with our Wooden Flamenco Dancer puppet, sharing the same elegant black and natural plywood palette. Fully biodegradable materials, never mass-produced, shipped worldwide with tracking and insurance.
