OUR COLLECTION — ASIA — INDONESIA  347. FINGER PUPPET NATIVITY 

Picture
These Nativity puppets are made from felt by women in Indonesia. The puppets are housed in a felt carrying case shaped as a stable. The puppets measure 3.75 inches tall and the stable measures 6.5 inches tall by 9.5 inches wide.
​
Although the Indonesian women enjoy making finger puppets, their financial situation demands them to do so. Since many of their husbands work jobs that don’t pay well, the women are forced to use their hands to earn additional income. That used to mean rolling cigarettes for pennies a day. Now, the women have teamed with the Surabaya organization to create finger puppets of all nationalities, helping them pay for their children’s school tuitions and to purchase groceries for their families.
