Antique Wooden Marionette – Gendarme

This hand-carved wooden marionette represents a historical gendarme (četník), a law enforcement officer from the Austro-Hungarian era. Dressed in a white double-breasted coat with red trim, dark trousers, and high boots, he embodies the traditional uniform of his time. His detailed facial features and neatly styled beard add to his authoritative presence. This marionette is a fine example of traditional puppet craftsmanship.
