9 Inch Tall Felt Doll
Edition Size: 250
Created in 2018
We are pleased to present The Japanese Brownie - the latest addition to our acclaimed PALMER COX BROWNIE COLLECTION. This whimsical character made his appearance in Cox's Brownie book, "The Brownies Abroad", first published in 1898.


Based accurately on the original Palmer Cox illustrations, the Japanese Brownie is made of the finest custom-made all-wool felt and jointed at the neck and shoulders. He has a molded felt character face, hand painted features, and tiny sculptural hands. Measuring 9" tall, the Japanese Brownie has heavy wire inside his legs to enable him to be self-standing.

The Japanese Brownie is outfitted in a delightful period costume of Old Japan. His ceremonial kimono is made of wool felt with applied silk ribbons and decorative felt appliques in floral and nautical motifs. The kimono features contrasting aqua silk lining and an 'obi' sash around his waist. Final touches include tiny hand-cobbled silk slippers on his feet and a Samurai sword inside a carved wooden sheath. This authentically-detailed accessory is handmade at the RJW workshop especially for the Japanese Brownie. No detail has been spared to bring this amusing Palmer Cox character vividly to life!

The Japanese Brownie is produced in a limited edition of 250 pieces worldwide. He comes inside a deluxe R. John Wright presentation box with a signed and numbered Certificate of Authenticity and the forms for owner registration.
