Annalisa
Annalisa has been poured, painted
and dressed by me, but the original sculpture is by the doll artist, Doreen
Sinnett.
She is made from Flumo, a strong and
versatile medium, entirely suitable for doll making. It has a smooth
texture which closely resembles porcelain while giving a realistic appearance to the doll.
Her
arms and head can be posed the way you want.

Every aspect of her creation has extreme
attention to detail. Her deep blue eyes are framed with long dark
eyelashes and her lips are a soft rose. A touch of blush accentuates her
cheekbones. Her attire is typical of the 1880's, with large bustles and
voluminous skirts.
Her inner clothing contains silk drawers and a
petticoat trimmed with pleated silk and further enhanced with ribbon and lace
trim. She wears a ball gown in light and dark turquoise blue which is cut
in several parts to drape gracefully and flatter her form. The first layer
of her clothing, is a deep turquoise blue which has been trimmed with hand
painted French lace and further embellished with gold and turquoise beads.
Her main dress is in a lighter shade of turquoise blue, and trimmed with a
variety of lace, silk ribbon beads and flowers. The gold lace that has
been used as trim on the back of the dress is hand crocheted in silk. The
dress is rendered more elaborate by the tastefully arranged wire edged enamel
effect flowers.

Her jewelry comprises an elaborate turquoise and
gold bead necklace and tiny gold earrings.
Her upswept hairstyle has been shaped into a
chignon with the ends curled and piled on top of her head. Enamel effect
flowers have been scattered throughout. A few stray tendrils frame her
face.

She stands at under 6 inches tall and is a
perfectly scaled dollhouse miniature. Pose her in a grand ballroom or any
elaborate setting and you will be pleased with the results.
