Traditional dolls are sometimes used as children's playthings, but they may also have spiritual, magical and ritual value. There is no defined line between spiritual dolls and toys. In some cultures dolls that had been used in rituals were given to children. They were also used in children's education and as carriers of cultural heritage. In other cultures dolls were considered too laden with magical powers to allow children to play with them.
This cloth tiger is so cute and lovely!Beautifully crafted and velvety soft, this little tiny tiger is a good item for my little sister for the coming Christmas. Tradition says that this cloth tiger was originally used as toys by Chinese farmers for kids, hence with a sense of Chinese countryside warmth. The exaggerated and cute shape, the hand-switching by folk artists, it’s so adorable and wonderful gift. I can’t wait to see my sister’s reaction.
