Antique Welsh Folk Art Pilgrim Man Cloth Doll Formal Wool Suit Wales

About the Item

Antique Welsh costume cloth doll of a man in a brown formal tux style suit, reminiscent of 17th century Pilgrims, with delicately painted face and wool clothing; made in Wales. Measures: 10". In Wales, until the mid-20th century few Welsh families in the United Kingdom had money to spend on anything except for life's essentials, which usually meant creating one's own forms of entertainment and amusement. Dolls were made by local craftsmen or a child's parents from wood or cloth, thus being rather unsophisticated, yet, at the same time, often charming and full of character."
