Your wait is over. We are delighted to offer our very own, exclusive, artist-created Georgian Wooden, “Dido Washington.”
Each doll is expertly crafted and painted by the esteemed doll artist, Karen Clohessy, of Perth, Western Australia, while the mold used to create Dido was taken from an actual antique wooden example doll from the Grovian Doll Museum Collection.
Dido Washington is cast in a high-quality resin that captures all of the nuances of the carved wood of the original doll. Her expressive face features beautiful modeling with a high forehead, full cheeks with vivid blushing, a sweetly tapered chin, and full, rose red lips with a light gloss. Her wise eyes, in traditional glossy black, are framed by delicately dotted brows and eyeliner, while each wig, of natural flax, was handmade by Michael Canadas. The wig is coiffed with the curls and styling details that are hallmarks of period hairstyles. (Each wig is unique, non-removable, and will present variations in style.)
Her body features a head and torso as one, with a gently curved bosom and a nipped waist; perfect to model the striking and dramatically proportioned fashions of her day. True to an original doll of this era, her body features jointed upper legs and knees, and her stuffed cotton upper arms attach to the shoulders and terminate in “carved,” graceful, forked hands.
Each doll measures approximately: 15 5/8” tall (excluding wig)
