    Amazing Doll; can Someone Please Identify the Artist?
    This pretty old lady is about 3.5 to 4 ft tall. Seen her is an antique shop on vacation, but she's no antique & she caught my heart. They had 3 different models sitting on the antique couch, but that the only picture I took. Their all very different, but very whimsicle women and all unique with their own names. And they also come lifesize too where you can use them as props for staging they said.

    I "hear" their called something like Cathy's collection or Kathy's collection, I don't know. I spent ALL DAY trying to hunt down their maker with no avail.

    Can someone please advise and enlighten me where to find the artist/company please?

    Quite frankly I think that is the ugliest doll I have ever seen; boadering on creepy almost. I would have nightmares if I had that doll in my house.

    Sorry, I came up with absolutely nothing have doing a quick search. Why can't you call the store where you saw the doll ?

    Like old saying goes "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder". Things with plenty of personality, character, unique conversation starter pieces & double take head turner pieces I adore. If we all liked cherry pie; guess it'd be worth its weight in gold then & hard to find, thus I'm happy to hear someone finds her offensive & nightmarish... lol.

    FYI, the artist other pieces, has other expressions that are laughing histerically, has a "cheers" expressions, tea time friendship expressions, some drunk looking and so many many more expressions, and all of which has one of a kind outfits on with different body language too; some boarderline gaudy... but to me, it works. Last time I seen them (10 years ago in Florida) was outside an interior designers studio set up at a patio table sharing a cup of tea... holding a tea cup and all. Each one was aprx 5.5 ft tall, dressed ditterently to the nines with elusive good times expression one one and the other was chubby face, laughing with her head cocked back like she heard a funny joke. Most Extremely unusual dolls I have ever seen.

    Didn't have the stores name or anything. Too boot, there's many many antique stores throughout the towns I traveled & I do not live nearby. Would have contacted them if I'ld known.
    Thanks for trying...
