A professional costume designer was brought to Dropenling to work with a group of seven tailors to develop these wonderfully animated animals.

The group started with snowlion and tiger puppets as they are commonly found throughout Tibetan art, and make great characters!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In 2007, Dropenling became a self-sustaining business whose profits are re-invested into further support of the Tibetan artisan community.
