Yangchen is a delightful young girl from the Kyirong county in Southern Tibet, near the Nepali border. Her beautiful long hair is braided and tied with pretty ribbons. She wears a long, typically maroon chupa (Tibetan dress) with a white shirt. Like most girls from her region she enhances her outfit with a unique colourful back apron as well as the vibrant more common striped front apron. Thick felt boots are a must to keep herself warm in that harsh mountain climate.

The doll’s skin is made of 100% cotton knit and its hair from recycled cotton and polyester yarn. The doll is filled with Polyester fibre and her clothing is a mixture cotton and synthetics.

All our dolls can only be sponge washed and not dipped in water.

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.

Additional doll clothes (knitted and stitched), doll bedding and a doll sling can be added for extra fun.
