Marion

Marion 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 eyes are green and her lips a soft coral.  A touch of blush accentuates her cheekbones. She is fashionably dressed in a style predominant in the 1870's, where the previous fashion of hoops was dispensed with and the excess fabric was moved to the back of the outfit and the bustle born. 

 

Her outer clothing is made from the finest quality silk.  Her inner clothing contains lace trimmed chiffon drawers and a petticoat.  Her petticoat is made in panels which serve to flatter her form and give support and layers to her outer clothing. She is wearing a ball gown, which has a silk paneled skirt in a dusty pink, trimmed with several layers of beige lace.  Her skirt tunic is made from a beige, cream and pink checkered pattern which has been interwoven with circles.  Her bodice is the same shade of pink as her skirt and has been trimmed in silk lace and tiny flowers.  Her dress is complimented by a glorious train made in beige silk and elaborately decorated with roses, leaves, flowers, lace and trim.

Her upswept hairstyle has been shaped into a wonderful top-knot with residual strands being shaped into a ringlet which falls halfway down her back.  Tendrils frame her face.  Her jewelry and hair ornament are made from small pearls in colours to match her gown. 

     

She stands at under 6 inches tall and is a perfectly scaled dollhouse miniature.  Pose her in a grand ballroom setting holding out her arm for a kiss or just add her to your doll collection.
