Clara ~~~


Clara is the third doll in this collection.


Clara is a Queen Anne style doll, inspired by those of the 18th and 19th centuries.
I have hand-sculpted and painted her head, shoulders, and hands.


All of her clothing is hand-sewn. The dress is antique linen with an antique lace overlay. It is trimmed with vintage gathered seam binding ribbon.


Her bonnet is made from aged parchment paper that has been printed with an antique letter. The paper bonnet rests lightly on her head.


If you are interested in having Clara or her friends come live with you, she can be found at Honeysuckle Lane.

Thanks for visiting!
