Marionettes - portrait puppets according to a template or photo - only single pieces - repairs
Welcome to my website! Welcome to my website! Bienvenidos a mi sitio web!
I would like to show you a small selection of marionettes that I have built over the past few years, that I am currently offering for sale or that are currently in the works.
My puppet workshop has existed for more than 30 years.
I regularly inform my customers about the progress of the creation of their ordered marionette with pictures via the Internet. If possible, I am happy to include change requests in my work.
Please inquire about ordering or payment modalities, as well as information about certain marionettes via my contact page or directly via info@marionettenbau.de.

Each marionette is unique
My puppet workshop has existed for about 30 years, initially in Hamburg and for a few years in Bavaria.
I build Stringpuppets based on my or customer ideas, portrait puppets based on photos or templates, marionettes for puppet stages or film productions, or just to play with or as a show object.
The two standard sizes of my dolls are 50-60 (approx. 2 - 3kg) or 65-75cm (approx. 3 - 4kg) depending on the type. Special sizes are of course possible.
Each marionette is handcrafted in my workshop.
The heads are modeled in several layers and are quite light thanks to a special core. After applying the skin color, a multiple fixation takes place.
The porcelain eyes with glass lenses, which are specially made for my dolls, make my artist dolls look particularly lively.
I use natural materials as much as possible.
Puppets according to photo
I also make portrait puppets from photos. For the work I need photos from the front and at least one picture from the side and one of the whole person. Porcelain eyes with glass lenses make my dolls look particularly lively. To determine the color, I will send you a color table.
