Collectible Opera Doll - Role of a Warlord

The doll craftsmanship came from Beijing Opera and formed an industry of exquisite handwork since the opera was born in the 18th century.

This doll originates from a famous warlord during the Northern Song Dynasty of ancient China, whose story has been widely dramatized with his wife Mu Guiying in the opera :)

The doll comes with a square wooden base. There is an option to choose a display case with the doll to prevent dust.
