Today Madelon shares with us some photos from a recent trip to an antique doll show.
"I saw this gorgeous mini room at an antique doll show."
"These little dolls were stunning to look at, I think the mini in the middle was offered for sale at $6,000!"
This was another lovely little room!
"They even had racks doll clothing for sale."
Antique Doll Shows are a wonderful way to spend an afternoon. Thank you Madelon for sharing these photos with us today.
As with all our posts we would love to hear from you so please leave us a comment here or email us at karenmowen@gmail.com
The little dolls in the box look like French 'mignonettes' and can easily go for 3,000- one did on Antique Roadshow. I adore antique French fashion dolls, specifically Hurets and Jumeaux, the 12 inch sizes. You can sometimes find reproduction artists at these shows who do the dolls, I have a reproduction by Sylvia Butler. These were the first 'Barbie ' for little girls and taught them about fashion. Mignonettes were smaller, under 8 to 6 inches or smaller.
