A witch on a turned silver birch body with a felt hat and broom, about four inches tall. Her face is friendly rather than fearsome, which is the version a young child actually wants to carry around.

Why it lasts.

The body is turned silver birch and the clothes are 100% New Zealand wool felt, stitched by hand in Nepal. A peg doll has no joints, no glue seams, and no moving parts, which is why the shape has survived a century of being carried around in pockets.

Who it's for

For the parent
It suits a family that wants a witch a three-year-old can hold without being frightened of her.
For the educator
Peg dolls stand unaided, which makes them easier for small hands to arrange than figures that need balancing, and the pair invites children to assign roles.
For the gift-giver
It makes a good gift in early October, and the two witches together make a better one than either alone.

Ways to play.

A peg doll stands on its own, so she holds a scene without leaning on anything or needing a stand. She flies when a child carries her and lands wherever they put her down. Set her next to the Grand High Witch and the pair sort themselves into a story on their own.

Details

Materials & construction

Each piece is crafted from 100% New Zealand wool felt. The wool is colored with azo-free, non-toxic dyes and verified under OEKO-TEX Standard 100. Every component, including structural threads and dyes, is cleared of over 100 harmful substances. The finished pieces contain no plastic, no batteries, and no synthetic fill.

These pieces are made in Kathmandu, Nepal, by a cooperative of over 350 women artisans, the majority of whom are mothers. Each is shaped through traditional needle-felting and wet-felting, without molds or machines. Tara Treasures is a Fair Trade Certified brand, which audits fair wages and safe working conditions. Your purchase directly supports the economic independence of the women who made it.

Care & storage

Spot clean the felt with a damp cloth and a little mild soap, and wipe the wooden body with a dry cloth. Never soak or submerge her, and do not machine wash or tumble dry, because wool felt will shrink and lose its shape. Let her air dry away from direct heat and store her standing up. Contains small parts and is not suitable for children under 3 years.
