Product Info |
Puppets are also one of the finest arts of Nepal. We always look for the unusual, ones of high quality and those that have traditional cultural value. These puppets are used in ceremonial and religious rituals by many of the peoples from where we obtain them. Their function is to express in ritual the people's expectations, hopes, and fears, and to revive the ancestors and to re-tie the bonds with their friendly spirits. Puppets also serve a very important function in the community. They are visual aids to learning. Imagine cultures were the spoken word, and not the written one, is the only means of transmitting mythological tales. Puppets are made of wood, cotton and clay. These puppets symbolize a Jyapu, a caste of Nepal. They live in Kathmandu valley. They are very hard working and love to be in their own society or circle.
