On the contrary, it looks as though it wants to tell us Scottish legends, full of fantastical creatures. The puppet measures 81 cm and is made of stretchy turquoise velvet with iridescent metallic accents. It has a long tail and a movable mouth.

The griffin is a mythical creature with the wings and beak of an eagle, the body of a lion, and the ears of a horse. In Greek mythology, griffins are often slain by heroes.  In the Middle Ages, the griffin’s dual nature was interpreted in various ways by Christian tradition: initially regarded as an incarnation of the devil, the griffin came to symbolize the dual nature of Christ.

The Griffon hand puppet from Folkmanis is a playful take on this mythical monster, featuring a fierce, movable beak, mesmerizing eyes, and large, movable wings. It has large claws set on a lion’s body with powerful hind legs and a long, bushy tail.
