Here we have an old mounted wooden folk art toy in Kathakali style
Please note: the first image maybe an enhanced presentation image. For an accurate representation of condition, including any wear or age-related marks, please refer to the additional photographs provided.
Kathakali is a major form of classical Indian dance, it's a "story play" genre of art, but one distinguished by the elaborately colourful make-up and costumes of the traditional male actor-dancers.
It is native to the Malayalam-speaking southwestern region of Kerala and is almost entirely practiced and appreciated by Malayali people.
This was originally a toy for children but is now too old and frail so has been mounted on a wooden stand as an ornament
The condition is as the photos
