Bring home a piece of South India’s rich cultural heritage with the Thanjavur Golu Doll, a handcrafted marvel made from papier-mâché. Known for its graceful movement and timeless charm, this doll is a favourite during the Navaratri Golu festival and makes a unique decorative piece all year round.

Key Features:

• Graceful Movement: The parts move independently yet in perfect harmony, gently swaying with the slightest touch.
• Roly-Poly Base: With its centre of gravity and weight concentrated at the rounded base, the doll always returns to an upright position, creating a delightful, wobbling dance.

This dancing doll is more than just a toy – it’s a celebration of Indian craftsmanship, physics, and storytelling through movement. Perfect for gifting, home décor, or festival displays.
