German Reproduction Dolls
 |
One of my favorite type of dolls to make is the German reproduction dolls. As I collect mostly this type of antique dolls, I admire the beautiful detail to attention that the doll makers of the past paid to their dolls.

They designed their dolls after the beautiful children of their friends and families. These dolls looked like real children. They developed their doll businesses around using members of their family and community to provide work to all. All members of the family worked to create these beautiful dolls including the children.

As I reproduce German dolls, I use dolls in my collection to recreate the look and style of years gone by. From the soft painting to the clothes, I try to recreate their style. This doll was duplicated from my JDK 247 Hilda Toddler doll.
