| ANN GEDDES' COLLECTIBLE DOLL LINE |
Anne Geddes Chloe sculpted by Laura Tuzio-Ross $229.00
It is so much fun each time to decide what image to use as inspiration for our next group
of dolls to be introduced in the Anne Geddes Collectible Doll Line. This time we have
chosen a classic. We just loved the photo with the three real babies seated in decorated
tin cans with their heads popping out dressed in hats decoratively detailed with pansies.
Anne created this image in her studio in NEW ZEALAND in 1995, and has included it again
in her latest book "A Labor of Love," her autobiography, introduced this past fall to rave
reviews. What a great look for spring!
Anne recounts that the inspiration behind these images from her first coffee table book,
the international bestseller "Down in the Garden," came from a tale that her Studio
Manager Natalie, once related to her. Anne says, "When Natalie was three years of age,
whilst playing in her grandmother's garden, she bent down to pick a pansy. Her
grandmother, who was gardening at the time, hid behind a bush and just as Natalie was
about to pick the flower, Natalie heard what she thought was the pansy say in a tiny
squeaky voice, ‘Oh, please don't pick me!’ So you see, pansies perhaps really do have
faces."
The pansy papier-mâché containers, which are based on original illustrations of old jam
labels, were also motivated from Anne's recollection as a child, of using old discarded
rusty tins for planting seedlings.
We decided it would be fun to adapt this look and recreate them as baby dolls with
different ethnicities. Anne has named the Caucasian, Eliza, the African American, Grace,
and the Asian, Chloe. Laura Tuzio-Ross has once again, under Anne's direction, created
three incredible new sculpts. Their expressions are adorable and Laura is unsurpassed
in her ability to capture different ethnic facial details. The hands were also specially
sculpted, so they could be posed on the edge of the containers, similar to the original
look.
Each silicone/vinyl baby is 19" with arms sculpted above the elbow and fully sculpted
legs that attach directly into their doe skin cloth body. They are filled with soft fiber and
weighted with pellets to make them huggable. They can be placed in their containers as
shown or cuddled in your arms.
Details on Chloe:
* Chloe is dressed in a lavender romper with a petaled sleeve detailing and pretty
embroidered pansies on her bodice. Each baby in the pansy group has a different
position of the pansies on its bodice. She also wears a diaper.
* Adorable soft hat covered with over 52 individual pansies to duplicate the original look
from the Anne Geddes image.
* Black baby-fine hair and dark brown eyes.
* A papier-mâché container decorated with the original design applied to it in the same
artistic manner as the original tins. The container is lined in brown felt to protect the
body as you place her in the container.
* Anne Geddes Logo packaging with a hand-numbered certificate and hang tag. The
decal is sewn into the cloth body with the edition number on it.
* Hand-Numbered Limited Edition of 1000 pieces worldwide
