An 18" portrait doll of Queen Anne Boleyn
Based upon the 'Moost Happi' Medal & the Nidd Hall Portrait
Here is the wonderful feedback left by her purchaser:
"5 stars is not enough! Thank you a million times.
This doll is absolutely gorgeous and more. The quality is a highly professional standard. She is a treasured piece to my collection. Every care was taken in the packing and delivery was prompt. I was gobsmacked when I saw the doll in the flesh at how beautiful she was."
She is an impressive 18", specifically re-painted, bisque porcelain doll. Anne is dressed in an original historical costume - from an originally cut pattern - crafted from a cotton velvet over-gown, flock taffeta under-skirts, embroidered taffeta under-sleeves, lace cuffs, pearl trim and diamante embellishments.
Her face and upper torso/arms have been re-painted to create a portrait doll of the tragic second wife of King Henry VIII and mother of Queen Elizabeth I; who was beheaded, after being falsely accused of adultery and high treason in 1536.
She comes with her own original stand.
