Arturo is a very long handmade puppet of a dachshund dog.
Starting in 2011, I first made 5 pieces of it (now sold out!) then started, lately, a new collection of a mini-size of it, more easy to make, sell and ship.
The very first one Arturo once met a writer (Davide Cali) and a publisher (Bruaà Editora), and signed a contract. He’s now always on the go, with a book on his own, travelling all around the world.
