I have been working on these dolls for a long time and I have become quite attached to them! They are ONE OF A KIND and unlikely to be repeated exactly .They are also COPYRIGHTED AS MY WORK and may not be reproduced in any way .All rights reserved .
Most of the dolls have been stained to age and then handpainted-thier faces have been decorated in several different mediums and then sealed .Where I have used Antique fabrics / Lace and flowers , I have used them as is- so there may be very slight stains -these do not deter from the appearence of the doll . The hair is Tibetan wool unless I state otherwise.
