Description :

Lot of 8 Vintage Chinese Silk Applique Figure Ornaments

Vintage Chinese handmade silk and cardboard paper-doll ornaments, often referred to as the Eight Immortals or traditional Chinese folk art figures

• Materials: They are typically constructed with a sturdy paper or cardboard backing, layered with real padded silk or satin fabric for the clothing, and sometimes finished with fine thread or hair details for the facial features.

• Origin & Distribution: Often produced in China as folk art exports, collections like these were widely sold globally in the mid-to-late 20th century. Many sets were distributed through popular novelty catalogs, such as the Lillian Vernon Oriental Silk collection.

• Usage: They feature a small string loop attached to the top of the head so they can be hung as festive ornaments, though they are also frequently collected as decorative items or used as bookmarks.
