Columbine marionette

I am Colombina, a lovingly handcrafted wooden puppet decorated with vibrant hand-painted details that bring me to life. Drawing on the rich traditions of Commedia dell’Arte, I embody the grace and wit that have enchanted audiences for centuries.

In the playful tapestry of Commedia dell’Arte, I share the stage with iconic characters such as Harlequin and Pierrot. Together we dance tales of love, mischief and intrigue, weaving romantic performances that capture the heart and ignite the imagination. My expressive eyes and delicate gestures convey emotions that transcend words, allowing each story to resonate deeply with each viewer.

Whether I am staging a tender romance or preparing a humorous escapade, my performances are a celebration of creativity and tradition.

Invite me into your home or collection and let’s journey together through the enchanting world of Commedia dell’Arte.

This marionette is designed not only to move its legs forward, like classic marionettes, but also sideways due to its double-jointed hips. While it’s intended for advanced puppeteers, with determination and practice, even those with minimal experience can eventually master this sophisticated puppet.

Expect subtle inconsistencies when comparing this puppet to the images on our website, as it is a unique original, hand-carved, hand-painted, and hand-sewn creation.
