[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 323579, member: 2844"]As tie said, a Wayang Golek puppet. She is a she, from West Java. Wayang Golek are traditionally Sundanese. The west of Java is Sundanese, only Central Java has an ethnic Javanese population. The east is a mix of several ethnicities. Each part of Java has a different Wayang puppet/theatre tradition. She was never used in a play, but made as a pretty souvenir. Judging from the fading of her sarung she has some age, but not enough to increase the value. She may not be valuable, but $4 is a bargain.[/QUOTE]
