Anne Geddes Grace sculpted by Laura Tuzio-Ross by MASTERPIECE DOLLS

Based on the photo by Anne Geddes of the three real babies seated in decorated tin cans with their heads popping out dressed in hats decoratively detailed with pansies, Laura Tuzio-Ross has once again, under Anne's direction, created three incredible new sculpts, Eliza, Chloe, and Grace.

Grace is dressed in a yellow 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 and an adorable soft hat covered with over 52 individual pansies to duplicate the original look from the Anne Geddes image.

A papier-mâché container decorated with the original design is applied 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.

Comes with the 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. 2/25/2008 (Price: $229.00)
