This hand carved wooden doll started out to be Anne's Daughter. Anne is the 24" wooden doll that I put on my site a couple of days ago. She is available if you scroll down you will see her.
Here is Beatrice, the 14" wooden that I have just finished. She looks like a young lady.....maybe 12 or 13 years of age.
She is sold but I wanted to show her to you anyway.
I love this little doll and she is going to a lovely lady that loves her too!
Enjoy......

I must share the gracious email that I just received from the thrilled lady that purchased Beatrice.
Here it is:
Hello Kathy,
I know that I have already expressed through our phone conversation
how very pleased I am with Beatrice, but I must elaborate on those
feelings now that I have a free moment.
Growing up with a twin brother, and mostly boys to play with, I was
never really interested in dolls. My recent discovery of your Izannah
Walker style dolls and then the English wooden dolls certainly changed
all of that! I knew that some day, I wanted to own one of your
beautiful creations.
When I saw Beatrice's face...I knew she was the one! Seeing her in
person, holding her and feeling the weight of the wood, the exquisite
details of her face, hair and clothing is pure delight. I still can't
get over the perfectly crafted, tiny shoes and stockings!
She truly is a work of art and a joy to behold. Be assured, Beatrice
will be loved and treasured for many years to come.
Warmest regards,
Joan
