Handmade Collectible Dolls by Diane Jordens

Each doll is made entirely by hand using needle and thread. All have interior copper armatures, making them easy to pose. For me the fun begins with the costuming process, selecting and combining an opulent array of fabrics including velvets, satins, brocades, ornamental trims and buttons. The eyes, noses, mouths and whiskers are all hand beaded, giving each doll a unique sparkle and expression.

The dolls you see on the site will give you an idea of the types of dolls available. The costume styles are as shown, however the fabrics and color combinations can vary. If you have a color preference, please e-mail me to determine availability and to discuss possibilities.

Over the years, the dolls have been collected by people from all over the world.

The dolls come in the following sizes:
Small (SM): approximately 17"
Medium (MED): approximately 20"
Large (LRG): approximately 24"-27"
