How They Move
Strings and Timber
The magic of a marionette lies in its balance. We use traditional jointing techniques to ensure every knee, elbow, and shoulder moves naturally.
Our custom control bars are designed for comfortable holding. Even a beginner can easily make our wooden characters walk, dance, and wave with simple, gentle hand movements.

Getting Started
Bringing Wood to Life
1
Unwind and Hold
Gently unwind the strings from the main control bar. Hold the crossbar level in front of you, letting the character rest its feet lightly on the floor.
2
The Basic Walk
Tilt the main bar slowly from side to side. As you dip one end, the opposite leg will lift. Alternate dips to create a smooth, natural walking motion.
3
Add Personality
Use your free hand to pluck individual strings. A gentle pull on the hand string makes them wave, while dipping the front of the bar makes them bow.
