ANB
Dolls Handmade in the
USA
All of Alesia's
one-of-a-kind handmade dolls are exactly that - no molds are used, no
off-the-shelf factory-made components. Each doll is made by hand with
hand-sculpted polymer clay head, breastplate, hands and feet, and a
hand-constructed cloth-over-wire-armature body stuffed with polyester
fiberfill. The eyes are handpainted. All garments and
accessories are sewn and assembled by hand. Prices range from about
$400 to about $600 a doll. A very reasonable price for a unique
masterpiece of the dollmaker's art. The dolls range in size from about
14 to 18
inches.
LEFT: ALICE is a bit
perplexed. If she drinks from the "DRINK ME" bottle, she can fit
through
the door,but if she puts down the key to drink from the bottle - ?
Alice is 11 inches tall, dressed in her handmade blue cotton-polyester
dress and handmade cotton pinafore with red piping and
lace trim - like a picture by Sir John Tenniel come to life. Her
hand-styled hair is synthetic. She comes with felt shoes, table, "Drink
Me"bottle and
door key. Like all of Alesia's dolls, she's completely handmade and
posable, made in America of polymer clay and cloth-over-wire-armature
construction, and stuffed with polyester fiberfill. RIGHT: Her
maddening
host, the MAD HATTER is splendidly dressed in his handsewn
custom-tailored outfit of houndstooth check and plaid. He's 10 inches
tall, to the tip of his top hat ("In this Style 10/6"), completely
posable, completely handmade in the USA, and complete with teacup and
buttered bread. Call for info and prices.
