Beautifully handcrafted Rajasthani dancing men puppet / kathputli. In Rajasthan the puppet tradition is called Kathputli, where Kaath means wood and Putli means Puppet. Kathputli means a puppet made out of wood. However Kathputlis typically have wooden torso and shoulders while the legs (absent in the ones based on a female character) and arms are made of clothes stuffed with cotton. Kathputli’s are string puppets controlled by strings which passes from the top of the puppets and manipulated by the puppeteer. These highly decorative handmade puppets are the source of age old tradition of narration of historical stories, myths and legends.

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.
I'm really happy with my order!

The fabric is so soft and pure cotton.The color is so beautiful as shown in the picture. Received an additional beutiful scrunchie as gift. Thanks for this. Will buy more fabric from itokri in future..
I ordered a number of clothing items and kolhapuri chappals. I am very happy with the quality of the items and the service provided by the team for the order was very professional. I will be going back to itokri for more purchases. Thank you.
I am not reluctant to recomment iTokri on the basis of my experience. My order was shipped very carefully to UAE and I did receive it in good condition. Personal care was taken by the people at iTokri and this is my second order and experience with iTokri.
