One-of-a-Kind Dolls

 

 

The Mist Princess- is lost in a dreamlike reverie- surrounded by

a forest of ferns and ancient, towering oaks.

 

 

Our wood sprite is wearing a lovely pink satin and white net gown

whose trailing handkerchief hem and sleeves fall to the ground to

fabric as her dress. She stands 13 1/2" high by 10" wide.

leggings that form her body. She has a faux pearl brooch at her

throat and she carries a basket full of the forest flowers she loves

so much. ( Note: This doll was featured in the Dec/Jan '95
