Description
The Mojilpur Earlier Day Police Doll is a delightful representation of Bengal’s rich folk-art tradition and social history. Doll making in Bengal is an ancient craft closely connected to daily life, occupations, and village stories. Among popular styles such as Tepa Putul, Krishnanagar Dolls, and Gala Putul, Mojilpur Dolls are especially known for their expressive forms and narrative character.
This distinctive style was originated by Manmath Das of Jayanagar–Mojilpur in South 24 Parganas, who introduced a unique visual language in doll making. His legacy continues through his grandson Sambhunath Das, who keeps the tradition alive by creating colorful and expressive Mojilpur dolls rooted in Bengal’s cultural identity.
Mojilpur dolls are easily recognised by their stretched eyes, lively postures, and strong connection to village life. The Earlier Day Police Doll captures the essence of a bygone era, making it a meaningful décor accent and a wonderful addition to any folk-art or heritage-inspired home setting.
