Tanjore Doll

The tiny dolls with over-sized heads that wobble with the slightest of taps have adorned car dashboards, college dorm rooms and worktables the world over for decades, the slightly askew head wobble combined with a goofy smile on the doll’s face working its magic in bringing a silly smile on the face of anyone who looks at them. Known as a Bobble head, wobbler or a nodder , these small figurines have had a colorful cast of celebrities and fictional characters light up its line-up, being the only way to put Mahatma Gandhi and Count Dracula on the same pedestal.
