These reproductions are inspired by dolls found in European and American households in the early 1800's. Head, hands and feet are constructed of a durable composition clay. the primitive body is made of muslin. The entire doll has been treated to a stained and antiqued finish. Hands are attached with ribbon and feet are attached with ecru ribbon. The upper arms are stuffed and attached to the dress separately. All clay parts on the doll are hand sculpted.
 
  This 18" tall doll wears a gown of red and ecru striped fabric with a navy blue satin ribbon tied about her bust. A ruffed, gauzy shawl hugs her shoulders and features a small navy bow and star brooch. Her brown painted hair is sculpted into a twist braid across her head and painted curl wisps surrounding her face. A sheer lacy ruffle with navy ribbon crowns her head.Her beautiful light brown eyes are painted to give the appearance of looking down. Her hands are sculpted so she holds a faux needle and thread while holding one of the tiny dolls.

At her side sits a rich brown wooden trunk filled with patriotic characters she has created; Uncle Sam, Sojourner Truth, George Washington, Dolly Madison, and Betsy Ross.
