Tholu Bommalata is the leather puppetry of Andhra Pradesh, and these large puppets carry its folk art vocabulary into a decorative piece for the wall. Each one is cut and shaped from leather, then painted by hand, so colour and line vary slightly from puppet to puppet.

The scale is generous for a puppet meant to be seen at a distance: roughly 16 inches tall and 9 inches wide. Made by hand by skilled artisans working in a traditional Indian folk art idiom.
