Mary has soft, dirty blonde, curly hair. She wears a handsewn, whimsical, country-style apron and a flowery dress that have been stained and aged. Her apron can be removed using the ribbon ties on the back so that Mary can be displayed in different ways (the apron should fit on any of my other similar sized dolls too, please be very careful of hands and fingers while doing this).
She has a sculpted fixed head, with hand-painted dark eyes, sculpted hands, and bare, dirty feet. Her limbs are wired and can be gently posed (by holding the wired area).
Her little sculpted doll has a matching dress and hair and is approx 3". She can be held tightly by Mary or stand on her own.
Mary comes with a custom-made dirt stand. The entire piece, on the stand, is just over 17"
A signed Certificate of Authenticity is included and the piece will arrive in a sturdy custom-made packing box, to keep her snug and safe.
I only sell pieces I have sculpted myself, this is a mixed media sculpture, please see the 'info' page for info on materials I like to use, clothes cannot be removed and hair should not be brushed.
I do not sell through 3rd parties if you are buying my available work from them, please be aware it is without my permission, they are drop shippers and you are being overcharged. I would appreciate a heads-up if you see this, thank you.
Mary, a poor country girl 17" art doll and her little dolly
I only sell pieces I have sculpted myself, each doll is a unique and one-of-a-kind original sculpt and cannot be recreated. I design and sculpt each piece, then sand, paint, pastel, costume, wig and accessorize.
These are handmade items and as such there will be the odd fingerprint, brush stroke, dropped stitch, spot of glue or other tiny 'flaws' - just like in us all. Any holes, fraying, stains or marks on the clothes are part of the overall design of the doll.
My sculptures are mixed media and intended as an adult collector's item for display only - please handle with care. Clothes are not removable and hair is not to be brushed. Keep away from direct sunlight and water (yes, just like a Gremlin!)
Only the items named in the listing are included, all other items or dolls are props for the pictures only.Buyer is responsible for any customs charges or local taxes that may be applied - the price you see does not include tax or customs duties so please check these for your country and only purchase if you understand you will be charged these on delivery of these items.
Delivery will be through Royal Mail and their international delivery partners. I always send my work insured and I am fully responsible for loss or damage until your sculpture is delivered safely to your door.
I will email you your tracking number once your sculpture is carefully packed and shipped, usually within 4 business days of ordering.
