About the Item
Early 20th Century English Folk Art Jigger Doll
A great example of an early 20th century English hand carved folk art articulated jigger doll. With charming hand carved boots, moustache and top hat, metal pins in its joints for articulation purposes. Stood on a metal wire stand for display purposes only. With its pine back support still in place which would have once had a stick placed in it so it could dance.
Jig dolls are traditional wooden or tin-plate toys for adults or children. They are dolls with loose limbs that step dance or 'jig' on the end of a vibrating board or platform in imitation of a real step dancer. In London they were frequently operated by street entertainers or buskers. In England old soldiers from the Great war sometimes busked with them to supplement their meagre war pensions
