Loutka Marionettes (TM) (puppets operated by strings from above) have a long history dating back to the 1700's . The origin of puppets stems back to puppeteers from Holland, England, France, and Italy. Eventually groups from the Czech Republic assisted many puppeteers. By the end of the 18th Century, the Czech Republic became the leading artistry center for handmade puppets and marionettes. The major center for handmade, authentic Czech Republic marionettes is Prague. Loutka Marionettes is proud to bring you original hand made marionettes from our own puppet masters located in Prague . Each marionette is painstakingly hand made with over 36 different operations and upwards of 20 man hours spread out over many days. When you purchase one of our Marionettes, you are getting a piece of history that can be displayed as well as used for fun and theater . Whether for your own collection, or a cherished gift for a child, these are working pieces of art. No two pieces are exactly the same..and these are not stamped out of a factory.
