For those of you using a 44-inch wide fabric, this guide suggests measurements for a standard L Size. Think of this as your starting point. If you're working with different sizes or fabric widths, just adjust up or down accordingly. Hope this helps!
When it comes to how much fabric you'll need, it really depends on the design. We'd recommend having a chat with your designer or tailor before you order, just to be on the safe side.

What is Leather Puppetry?
Leather Puppetry (Tholu Bommalata) comes from Andhra Pradesh. Large translucent leather puppets are carved from goatskin, dyed with natural colors, and articulated with joints. They cast colored shadows during nighttime performances.
How is Leather Puppetry made?
Artisans select goatskin, remove hair, treat it until translucent, cut puppet shapes, make perforations for light transmission, and paint with natural dyes. Bamboo sticks attached at joints allow the puppeteer to animate the figure.
How can I tell this is genuinely handmade?
Look for minor variations in shape, color, or pattern. Machine-made products look perfectly uniform. Handmade Digital Print pieces carry the maker's touch in every small detail.
Why does each piece look slightly different?
Every piece is made by hand, one at a time. Slight differences in material, pressure, and technique make each one unique. That's what separates handcraft from factory output.
How do I care for Leather Puppetry products?
Handle gently. Keep dry and clean. Specific care depends on the material. check the product page. Most pieces stay in excellent condition with regular dusting and gentle handling.
