Physical description

[Puppet] Glove puppet of a Clown with carved and painted face and hands, and fur hair. His pink-painted face is detailed with black eyebrows and eyes, a red mouth and four red dots - one in his forehead, one on his chin, and one on each cheek. He wears a grey woollen fabric jacket with red woollen fabric sleeves and matching trousers. The cuffs and waist of his outfit are trimmed in yellow and he has a pale green ruff around his neck. His stockings are made from braid striped in purple, green, yellow, blue and white. The grey woollen fabric sleeve which concealed the hand of the puppet operator (the Professor) also forms the Clown's jacket.
