Description

Handmade Camel Doll from Tajmir Village

This doll is crafted by Haydeh and Fatemeh, two talented sisters from Tajmir village in Sarbisheh, South Khorasan. Tajmir dolls hold dozens of stories from the village, recalling lullabies, old poems, and memories of rural nomadic life.

Since the year the carbon sequestration project was implemented in Naz Dasht and Tajmir villages of Sarbisheh, and the revival of local handmade dolls to create sustainable supplementary livelihoods, the village’s business has flourished. For the past two years, they have started making camels alongside their dolls, combining them with the traditional Tajmir dolls.

In recent years, Tajmir has transformed from an unknown, deprived village into a hub for traditional doll production, attracting many tourists eager to see these unique handmade dolls.

• The height of the camel doll is approximately 35 cm.

• Haydeh and Fatemeh skillfully created this piece by combining wood, cotton thread, and felt, finishing it with beautiful embroidered patches.

Note:
Since the camel doll is a handmade product by rural women artisans, the doll you receive may slightly differ in size and appearance from the photos.
