Younten originates from the Kongpo region in South-Eastern U-Tsang, bordering Kham. He wears the typical Kongpo hat (known as a gyasha) with an upturned brocaded rim. His hair is pulled back and plaited with red silky threads, like in many other Tibetan regions. Over his long chupa he has a warm woollen tunic that is belted around his waist. His long Tibetan boots are called Lham and protect him often freezing temperatures. 

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.
