Dolls from the 2012Collection are no longer available, This page has been retained as a reference archive for our collectors.

This year we have created Emila who is 20" and an older child doll, the same size as Lillian, one of our most popular dolls from the 1990's. Emilia has a hand carved articulated, lime wood body, porcelain head and hands, glass eyes and mohair wigs. She is available in 3 editions.

Also this year we introduce an entirely new toddler doll, Gertie. She is 11" and has a firmly stuffed cloth body, jointed at the hips and shoulders. Gertie scales beautifully with Bonnie Baby our little cloth bodied baby. Bonnie Baby is just 9" tall and was first introduced in May 2011 (Bonnie Baby in pink or blue) as the yearly special for members of our Collectors Club. Gertie and Bonnie are available in 2 editions each. They have hand painted eyes and mohair wigs.

Emilia and Toby, The Favourite Bear. One of my favourite bear artists is Paula Strethill-Smith and we were delighted when Paula agreed to make Toby for us. In this very special edition, Emilia is dressed in a lovely 40's fabric skirt with knitted jumper and embellished felt waistcoat. She sits on a wonderful hand painted seat with lovely vintage fabric cushions with her favourite bear Toby. Toby is made of distressed vintage plush, with leather pads and a wobble neck joint. Paulas bears are exquisitely made, wonderfully scaled and invested with great character. Emilia Has a pale strawberry blond mohair wig and blue glass eyes.
