Mould for Toy

This unusual figure is a mould for traditional toys made in Burma. Made of papier mache and painted, these toys are sold in pagoda markets. They are now considered a dying folk art with pervasive and cheaper plastic toys replacing them. Our curious form is for a figure representing a palace page called ‘Pho Wa’ or ‘Little Fat Boy’. We love the enigmatic quality of the shape and its simple details. (Contrary to what some online vendors say, this is not a shaman’s figure or an item for ritual use.)
