Thinley comes from Kyirong, the Southern region of Tibet, near the Nepali border.  Under his chic distinctive yellow hat his long hair is tied back in a plait, interwoven with red silky thread. He wears a white shirt and a long, typically maroon, chupa coat which is held together with a red silken belt. He attaches a silken pouch to his belt, used to store essentials for a farmer’s day out and he wears comfortable felt boots.

The product is filled with 100% sheep’s wool and can be handwashed. The clothing is made from cotton and synthetics. All garments can be removed. Additional outfits and rucksack can be purchased on the accessories page.

Please note: While maintaining a distinct style, due to its handcrafted nature, each product will vary slightly and fabrics used for the garments are frequently changed. If you have any preferences for material colours or would prefer a darker skin tone (like Samdol), please contact us via email at info@dolls4tibet.com.
