More about the dolls:
The items in the image are Vintage Chinese Silk and Paper Dolls, a traditional style of Chinese folk art depicting historical characters, deities, or mythological figures. They are meticulously handmade using padded vibrant silk fabric layered over a stiff paper background, often featuring hand-painted details on their faces.
Sets like these typically depict well-known characters from Chinese folklore, such as the Eight Immortals (Ba Xian), characters from the classic novel Journey to the West, or traditional opera performers. Depending on how they are backed, they are commonly used as decorative hanging ornaments, bookmarks, or collected as wall art displays.
