SINCE THE DOLL IS PORCELAIN, IT IS IMPORTANT TO USE EXTRA CARE WHEN YOU UNPACK HER. AS THE PROUD OWNER OF THIS DOLL YOU WILL BE HAPPY TO HEAR SHE ONLY NEEDS MINIMAL CARE TO PRESERVE HER BEAUTY. GENTLY WIPE PORCELAIN WITH DAMP CLOTH THEN DRY WITH SOFT CLOTH.
THE CHARLESTON DOLL CELEBRATES THE ROARING TWENTIES ALL DRESSED UP IN A DAZZLING ORIGINAL BY CELEBRATED FASHION DESIGNER BOB MACKIE. SHE IS READY TO SPEAK HER MIND AND CHARLESTON ALL NIGHT LONG IN HER ORANGE BEADED FLAPPER DRESS AND LEOPARD PRINT BUBBLE COAT WITH FAUX FUR. HER STYLISH CLOCHE HAT AND LONG BEADED NECKLACE ADD EVEN MORE EBULLIENCE TO HER SNAZZY CHARM.
SHE IS HAND-CRAFTED IN FINE BISQUE PORCELAIN. HER BEAUTIFUL FACE PERFECTLY CAPTURES THE FLIRTY, WIDE-EYED EXPRESSION OF A TWENTIES GIRL. AND HER INTRICATELY SCULPTED CHARLESTON DANCE POSE TELLS US SHE IS DEFINITELY PART OF ALL THAT JAZZ.
THE CHARLESTON DANCE SERVED AS THE PERFECT EXPRESSION FOR ANY FLAPPER'S REBELLION AGAINST THE MORE CONSERVATIVE STYLE OF BALLROOM DANCES AND MORES FOR WOMEN OF THE TIME. THE CHARLESTON WAS CREATED IN 1913 BUT IT DIDN'T BECOME A NATIONAL RAGE UNTIL AROUND 1924 AFTER APPEARING IN A MUSICAL REVUE CALLED "RUNNIN' WILD". THIS DOLL IS THE SECOND IN THE SERIES "CELEBRATION OF DANCE PORCELAIN COLLECTION".
FROM A SMOKE FREE HOME. PLEASE LOOK AT ALL OF THE PHOTOS AS THEY ARE PART OF THE DESCRIPTION AND CONDITION.
