Meet George, 21" Hand Carved Wooden Doll..............SOLD

George is 21" tall and fully dressed in clothing that I made from antique fabrics.  His clothing is not removable as I have stitched it on to keep it all in place on him.  He is so charming in person. He is fully jointed and sits well too.  He is hand carved from Basswood.  Black dolls are so hard to photograph so I assure you his patina and detail to his face is so much nicer in person.  He has antique black glass eyes.
George looks like he might have been a worker at the Palace!  Perhaps he drove a carriage or kept the grounds or was a helper to the prince. 
I have really enjoyed making him and watching him come to life.  This is the first male doll that I have ever made and he really has a presence about him.
If you would like more photos or have questions just let me know:  toysintheattic@sympatico.ca
George is SOLD.

Well, wood carving is undoubtedly a very much adored and preferred type of artwork everywhere. The creation shared by you is looking great and availing an amazing and natural appearance as well. it is a good piece of artwork and really very much eye catching as well.
