The practice of making wooden dolls may be traced back to old Indian communities, notably the Thanjavur area of Tamil Nadu, where artists mastered the art of creating dancing sculptures. These toys were employed in Bommai Golu, a Navaratri festival that utilized wood sculptures to tell stories about the divine. "Iyer with Spring" is a product of this tradition.
