RESTORATION INFO:

Sometimes these 50-80 year old dolls just don’t survive the test of time very well. Restoration is needed. Finding a skilled restorationist is as hard to find as the rare doll itself. Doll Hospitals and restorers can charge $12.00-$15.00 per inch and this does not even include wigs or clothes! This is a ART. A labor of love & mostly a lot of sanding. With these collectible pieces, I have done my best to keep the doll looking as original as possible when the doll was Mint. With that being said, These are still Vintage & Antique dolls. Composition especially has a lot of factory nuances & aging issues that will still present themselves on occasion. After the years go by there could be joint rubs ( I line the joints with felt to avoid this), or the faint hint of a craze line on the body.

This doll has been repaired if needed, and eyes will be clear and a appropriate color. There will be no missing fingers or toes. The process includes stripping, sanding, priming, airbrush painting, hand painted features & sealing. I pay special attention to the faces and they are completely smooth. I have been a skilled Artist all my life. My attention to detail of the painted features is expert. To see PHOTOS of my prior restorations visit my facebook page The Sewing Doll.
