Olivia - a folk art doll

Olivia is a folk art doll. She is inspired by antique photographs of young girls and women.

She is made using hand dyed linen and is filled with a mix of British wool and fabric scraps. I only use natural materials in my doll making.

Olivia wears hand stitched clothing - cotton pantaloons beneath her cotton skirt. Her jacket/blouse is tea-dyed cotton fabric that has been draped and stitched to her. On her wrists are lace and vintage button details sewn on. She is barefoot. She also wears a lightweight cotton collar.

Olivia's hair is British wool, carefully stitched in place. She has a hand stitched face.

Olivia will come with a signed tag detailing her materials.

This one of a kind folk art doll is a collector's item and not a toy for small children. She is designed to sit and be a good companion. She would be happy amongst other dolls, antique bears etc...

Olivia measures approx: 29cm tall

POSTAGE
All dolls will be packaged carefully and sent as small parcels - this does mean I need to charge more for postage than a flat artwork might be. I will make use of recycled materials for packaging, where possible. Thank you for your understanding.
