This a Lapland Man. Lapland is not a country, but a well-known region covering the north of Finland, Sweden, and Norway and bordering the Arctic Ocean, with almost the whole region within the Artic Circle. At first I thought his head was made of wood but I think it may actually be a poured material more like a plaster paper mache. He has painted features. I'm sorry it's hard to tell. The body is stuffed and he has mitten type hand with stitching to indicate fingers and he has a separate thumb. He has a huge four-cornered hat which is the distinguishing feature of the dress of the men and boys. Bright blue woolen costumes take the place of the reindeer skin winter suits of the Laplanders. I see no fade to this outfit. There are no holes either.He has on a pair of black pants and leather type boots with colored thread for decorations. What a nice earlier doll. He is from a smoke free environment. Buyer to pay $20 for U.S. shipping, insurance, and handling. Thanks for viewing.
