Native Peruvian Doll - Baby in Traditional Peruvian Fabric - Sky Blue/Pink/Multicoloured

A very pretty indigenous Peruvian doll carrying her baby, or ‘Wawa’ in Quechua. This lovely ‘Cholita’ was crafted in Peru by our Peruvian artisan artists.

She is dressed in traditional costume: a hat, a poncho or ‘manta’, and a long, full-skirtedtraditional Peruvian skirt commonly known as a ‘pollera’. Her entire outfit has been made from authentic traditional Peruvian fabric, or ‘manto’. Finally, she wears sandals typical of Peru(ojotas). Her baby, whom she cradles tenderly in her arms, is also wrapped in a beautiful piece of Peruvian fabric.

This doll has been lovingly and carefully crafted by our artisans. Both the fabric and the doll itself were made entirely in Peru.

She and her baby have been dressed in two types of traditional Peruvian fabric; the main, thicker fabric, used to make her hat and skirt, comes from the city of Cusco, whilst the softer fabric, used to make the poncho and to wrap her baby, comes from the city of Puno.

One of the reasons we recommend giving this lovely doll as a gift is that children are instantly drawn to it thanks to its colours andshapes. It’s also very easy to carry, whether by children who love to drag their favourite toys around wherever they go, or by parents who always end up carrying them themselves.

Trust us, they’re really practical and will do the trick!

A doll that’s sure to turn heads, with its own history, culture and identity.
