Wayang hand puppet. The puppet, Un Kauw, has a human-like male head carved from wood, featuring sharp teeth emerging from below a pointed upper lip, a third eye on the forehead, two small faces protruding from behind each ear, and a small gold headdress perched on the receding black hair. Tall black boots are also carved from wood, as are the hands which are curved into fists with a hole bored through the centre. Legs are made from stuffed cotton, and the torso and arms of the puppet take the form of a cotton glove. The puppet’s robe has an upright collar, wide torso and sleeves, and a multi-paneled skirt hanging in front of the legs both front and back. The garment’s base colour is white, with heavy embroidery showing dragons, dragon scales, a butterfly at back, and decorative boarder motifs. The underside of the robe is lined with raw cotton.
