Hand Sewn Folk Art Wool Gingerbread Man

This 6 inch cloth guy is created from wool. He is sewn together with wool yarn in a blanket stitch. He has wool embroidered facial features and buttons. I believe he was probably created in the late 19th century. I can see him as a folk art Christmas tree ornament and a toy for a larger doll. He would also complement any fairy tale/nursery rhyme collection. The Gingerbread Man is in good clean condition with some wear to the wool and wool yarn. He is a charming character that can be caught by a lucky purchaser.
