Description 18.9 x 9.4 x 9.4 inch

The skull is a real Persian house cat skull with realistic acrylic BJD eyes and lashes.
Her hair is made from high quality auburn English viscose, and she is wearing a bonnet made from antique Victorian lace, adorned with silk ribbon and silk embroidered roses.
Her body is sculpted with paperclay over a messing rod frame with apoxie for extra strength.
She is dressed in a cotton dress adorned with antique laces from the Victorian era, silk ribbons, and the tiniest buttons.
Under her dress she is wearing an underskirt from antique lace and a beautiful skincolored bloomer.
Her legs are covered in cotton stockings, and she is wearing leather and metal polio braces and shoes.

She's holding a 3” handmade teddybear, made to look old and used.

Her 'dead' stuffed needle felted hare is missing one paw.
It is tied to the wooden cart she is pulling with a leather belt.

The wooden base is adorned with hand grinded stones and sand, aged with patina.
The doll can be removed from her base but is not free standing.

Hi Essie, I forgot to tell you I had the pleasure of seeing this at Dollirium recently- it's so big! it's so beautiful. Pictures never do your work as much justice as seeing in person

Hi Kamila,

Thank you so much.
Yes she is huge LOL
I think that's something we all have to deal with, they never look as good as in "flesh and blood".
