Maxi Marionette's Clown Marionette Feature

6" L x 11" W x 24" H
You donÕt have to know a thing about marionettes to admire and appreciate the quality and skill that goes into each one of these extraordinary puppets. Often referred to as Objet DÕart, MaxiÕs marionettes are on display in homes and offices worldwide.
Maxi handcrafts each and every marionette based on the traditional eye-bolt patterned puppets from old world puppet theatres, where every joint can be moved.
The ClownÕs head and hands are each made of special ceramic while his clothes are custom designed and hand-tailored from a combination of new and antique fabrics as well as wonderfully charming embellishments.
With an average of over 30 hours spent creating this Clown marionette, he is made in very limited numbers and comes complete with traditional clown make-up and a bright red nose.

Handcrafted in Germany by Maxi Kiermeier, one of the worldÕs most talented - and creative - marionette-makers, this Clown marionette works hard for your laughs and is sure to charm even the most hard-nosed viewer. Maxi, inspired, in part, by fairytale and fantasy figures, uses her vivid imagination to dream up each and every stringed character, creating her own, remarkable world of marionette creatures.
