ALESIA
NEWMAN-BREEN
Celebrity Dolls Handmade in the USA All
of Alesia's one-of-a-kind (NOT one-of-a-series) handmade dolls are
exactly that - no
molds are used, no off-the-shelf factory-made components. Each
doll is made by hand with hand-sculpted polymer clay head,
breastplate, arms and legs, and a hand-constructed
cloth-over-wire-armature body. All garments and accessories are
sewn and assembled by hand. THERE IS ONLY ONE OF EACH DOLL. Prices
range from about $400 to about $600
a doll. A very reasonable price for a unique masterpiece of the
dollmaker's art. The dolls range in size from 14 to 18
inches. Call 410-683-1562 or email newbreen@comcast.net for info.

Bette Davis from Henry Farrell's tale of murder and scandal in the
bayous. As always, Alesia has dressed the dolls in meticulously
detailed reproductions of the movie costumes. SOLD to a private
collector. For more info about Alesia and her remarkable dolls,
