From
the 50's to present day, these are "Contemporary" or "Modern" fashions. A lot of
years are spanned herein, and who knows what fashions the future may
bring! Thankfully, some of the fashions faded out into history,
but then again, the old sometimes becomes the new once more.......
Our dolls are not for children! Please visit our Site Map for more information on our dolls. They are
all porcelain, very carefully hand painted using china paints, fired many times, assembled, dressed
and wigged. Clothing
is manufactured of fine silks, cottons, exquisite laces,
real and "faux" furs,
etc. I create my dolls with love, just for you. Custom dolls are available. See below. |

Eyes toward the heavens, Francine asks WHY the paperboy cannot put the paper on the front lawn instead of next to the road? It's a long walk back down the driveway and she hopes that the neighbors do not see her in her nightie, robe and slippers! Her gown and robe are made of duponi silk with lace accents, stylish slippers, and casual hair - however, it's a bit disconcerting to be out on the roadway at this time of the day!! WHY!? |
