Vintage Handmade Green Yarn Clown. Measures about 12" sitting down. He is designed to sit. Yarn covered body and plastic face. Very good condition. There are some pulls in the yarn and the face appears to be sitting on top, not integrated.
This whimsical 12-inch sitting clown is a charming example of vintage "yarn art" or "pompom" style handicrafts popular in the late 20th century. The doll's entire form is created from voluminous loops of emerald green and white yarn, giving it a soft, shaggy texture that is delightful to the touch. It features a cheerful plastic face with traditional painted clown makeup and bright red lips, which rests nestled atop the yarn body. Designed specifically to sit on a shelf, bed, or mantel, this clown adds a pop of vibrant color and a touch of folk-art character to any room. While the doll is in very good condition overall, there are some natural pulls in the yarn loops consistent with its handmade vintage nature. It is a perfect addition for collectors of unique circus memorabilia or those who appreciate the cozy, handmade aesthetic of mid-century home crafts.
This item is vintage, over 30 years old. While it appears to be in very good condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
