Beautiful GSR doll Gerda Schaarman Elf doll artist Mary Lambeth ppw eyes OOAK

Description

Gorgeous Elf Zoe 18 inch tall not including her head piece about 19 altogether. My pics dont do her justice!
Zoe the elegant Elf has a cloth body with porcelain arms and legs, adorable fat sculpted feet , I just love them, knobby knees and splay fingers.
This was an expensive (now long retired) mold in the day when you could purchase it, created by premier artist Gerda Schaarman Rijsdijk known as GSR made from her own original sculpt One of a kind Zoe elf doll.  ( Her Patouche and Babel were made in limited numbers in vinyl but Zoe was one of a kind owned by GSR and available only if you purchased a mold and made the doll.) Which is what award winning doll artist Mary Lambeth did bought the mold and poured this beautiful elf doll adding her hand signature into the bisque on back of neck. She also comes with hang tag from the Lambeth Palace collection stating it is a GSR reproduction doll. Mary dressed the doll in fine pure silks and heirloom lace as she is a doll clothier of excellence as well
Mary Lambeth poured the mold, painted and fired the doll making her a one of a kind.  She gave her expensive Hand Glass Craft paperweight HD eyes from England aprox 50.00 a pair, human hair lashes, mohair wig,  pure tissue silk dress and silk head band.
This doll is a rare unique one of a kind artist offering.
Doll is in perfect condition - dress is in good condition no holes or melting silk, there is a little grey shading on some of the roses which may have been hand dyed light silver and faded.
