Patuk the Penguin

Wrapped in an Inuit-inspired woollen outfit adorned with delicate hand-embroidered tribal details, Patuk the Penguin radiates warmth, charm, and timeless craftsmanship.

Silaiwali’s cloth dolls are such lovely things, well designed, well made and in a range of skin tones and traditional dress. Each doll even comes with a bed, as the cardboard box they arrive in has a little pillow and a blanket.

Each doll is stitched by hand by women who have fled from Afghanistan to India. The work allows them to earn a living and form a new community.
