Update: Jan. 17 2011 Custom Order a Costumed Devil Boudoir Doll! |
|||
|
Custom Order: Costumed Devil Boudoir Doll OOAK This Boudoir Doll reflects the Scandalous fun of the 1920s Valentine's Day Masquerade Extravaganzas! Each doll is made to capture the essence of the Costumed Devil Boudoir Doll of the 1920s. It is difficult to find one in good condition because they were originally made of felt, but you can at times find an image of a dapper young man giving his lady one of these charming little Devil Boudoir Dolls. Faded Rose Costumed Devil Boudoir Doll is made of painted Muslin that has simulated wear added, and cloth face with inset eyes. She will be wearing a skirt (that ties at the side), cuffs and permanent shoes that have been painted on. Faded Rose Costumed Devil Boudoir Dolls will have a head that can turn.
Cloth Face vs Clay Face I have decided to make cloth faces with these boudoir dolls. If you would like to have a Clay face please contact me before so that I can change listing price. The originals had composition heads, and were seen with and without hair. Please note: that the doll shown is just an example. Aspects of doll may differ because materials used such as buttons are Vintage or Antique. Please also note that each face is individually sculpted, and hand painted for each order.
Order Your Custom made Costumed Devil Boudoir Doll You can order this doll by going to my Etsy Shop. Please read through the information that accompanies the Listing. If you have any questions email or convo me on Etsy. - Thank you ----------------------------------------------------- Hope that You Have a Wonderful Day, Wishing you Beautiful Memories, Faded Rose Factory |

Update: Jan. 12 2011 Current Work in Progress! - Faded Rose Boudoir Doll |
|||
New Doll in Progress This is one of the boudoir dolls that I have been working on. She is currently on a Temp body. I was seeing if the new head fit correctly to the body after I had sculpted it. She has a cloth face with a cloche hat and black mohair. She is wearing her clothing. I thought that everyone would like to see my current work in progress. :) Email or convo for a heads up before posting on Etsy.
New Custom Order Page I have created a custom order page that outlines information that I need to know before I start sketching. The Links to this page are found at the top of this page on the main bar, and also on the "Doll Seletions" page.

Update on 36" inch doll: Hi everyone, I have placed some pictures of the new 36" inch in the Doll selection under the link "Cloth Face Boudoir Doll." You can also see the images by clicking here.
Another doll Here is another doll that I've been working on. She is a hand-painted cloth face ooak boudoir doll. Her hair is a frizzy brownish red mohair. She will be wearing this vintage lace headband. Her clothing has not been completed.
New Dolls!!! dec 15th Been Working on New Dolls. The one to the left is 36" inches from the top of her crown to the bottom of her dress. She has cloth surfaced hands and feet inserted lashes with blue eyes. She wears a wistful dreamy expression. Her clothing is by The House of LeBarre. She has step in underwear, a lace neat underskirt with embroidered Roses and a dress that has gathered rosettes, and a vest with lace. All clothing is lined in fine fabrics. She has pink hair with a removable crown. I was inspired by the Rosealinde dolls of the 1920s. This boudoir doll is larger then the traditional boudoir dolls. She is hand painted by me, and is a one of a kind creation (OOAK). She is just breath taking.... and even more beautiful in person. I was amazed how well she turned out, and how much she resembles the original dolls. Thank you to the House of LeBarre once again and always for creating such a stunning gown and clothing. ----------------------------------------------------- New Boudoir Doll -platinum blonde Another doll that I have been working on is a traditional looking boudoir doll. She wears a pin strip suite, and has platinum blonde hair. She has a clay face, and clay hands. With cloth feet. Her hat is wonderful with a decorative glass heart with fine thin feathers and netting. Her clothing is made by: The House of LeBarre. I am in the process of finishing her body, and making her shoes. She is made in a special kind of clay that is extra light weight, and I found it difficult to sculpt with this clay. There will only be two dolls made with this clay (I will update on the other doll later). Her face turned out wonderfully, but is delicate. She should be handled with care, I love the effect though. She is for display purposes only, and considered a work of art. She is also one of a kind (OOAK). ----------------------------------------------------- Etsy Listings These dolls will be listed on Etsy. But if you wish to purchase these dolls you can contact me ahead of time for possible post dates. ----------------------------------------------------- Recently: Reserved - Sold Please note: Boudoir Doll Hatstand Pink RESERVED.---12/17 Please note: Boudoir Doll Hatstand Orange SOLD.-------12/16 Please note: My Sweet Rose Boudoir Doll is SOLD. -----12/14 Please note: The Cigar Smoker Doll is RESERVED.

Update: Oct. 3 2010 The Feeling of Fall in the Air!!! |
|||
![]() |
New - Mache Boudoir Doll Beginning to feel like Fall.....my favorite time of year. Working through the night on a new type of boudoir doll (love the weekends). Will be available very soon on my Etsy site. These Boudoir Dolls are slightly smaller than my other Boudoir Doll creations. The first ones will have painted hair. They will have cloth hands and feet (most of the time). They are more like the Boudoir Bin Dolls of the 1920's that were sold most everywhere as Novelty items. These were the everyday boudoir dolls. They were sold in bins at various department stores. Their legs were drawn up and their arms tied around their legs, to make them more compact. Many of these dolls were not dressed, and patterns were available for clothing. |
||
Update: Sept. 29 2010 A Sketchy Day |
|||
What do you think? Been working on new sketches for some boudoir dolls. I think that I might do some more Halloween boudoir dolls. Email or Convo (Etsy) me and tell me what you want to see. More cloth face or Clay faced. More Halloween or Classic full dressed or fun flapper. I am in a creative mood, and ready to sculpt more boudoir dolls. If viewers wish I can place sketches on after I am finished.
-------------------------------------------
The Cigar Smoker I was thinking about putting her up in November, but if you are interested in her I will post her earlier. She will cost 380.00 dollars plus shipping and handling. I recently contacted The House of LeBarre for her tailoring work.... that should be getting started pretty soon. Scroll over images to left to see images. Also scroll down to Sept. 2 2010, and see even more images.
-------------------------------------------
Josephine Baker I am designing what she will be wearing, and I really did not want to do the whole traditional Baker. I think that I may choose a more elegant role. Am I wrong? With the traditional boudoir doll hair.

New 3D Shadow Box Thought that you might want to see the images for the new shadow box. I think that it shows real depth..... She is sitting on the edge of a bank with her toes dipped in the water....I tried to create the appearance of real water. These always have small details that take a lot of time. I enjoy creating these pieces because I can use my painting skills, and create a work of art that is really a window into another world. I still have to paint one of the sides and the frame. Etsy: Update Had a small delay in getting everything up on my Etsy Shop. This weekend I will place the protective layer on the bottom of the hat-stands... After I have finished that I will place my hat-stands, 3D shadow boxes, and the current boudoir dolls that I have up. Coming Later to Etsy.... Have any questions please feel free always to email me, and thank you for all the wonderful emails about the Faded Rose Boudoir Dolls, 3D Shadow Boxes, and my new Etsy Shop.

Update: July 4, 2010 Sneak Peek Through the Workshop Keyhole ------ Smoker Doll |
|||
![]() |
Sneak Peek! Materials were used to mirror the original boudoir doll in the construction of her features. She is light weight like the original boudoir doll and has that 1920's essence. Many hours of research has gone into creating the correct receipe for the original (similar) materials used in the first boudoir dolls... and I am very happy with the results! Her face has an egg shell like complication. She looks delicate (but is just as durable as clay)! I made her into a smoker doll. Because I have not done as many clay faced smoker boudoir dolls. I have added glass eyes, and a mohair wig. |
||
Update: June 28, 2010 Doll Featured in Magazine / Art Nouveau Hat Stands Debut |
|||
![]() |
Faded Rose Factory Hat Stands!!! Pretty faced hat stands were a favorite adornment of the 1920s bedroom. There were 2 popular styles: top heads and base heads. Their distinctive features mirror the haunting beauty of the classic boudoir doll of the same period. Each Faded Rose is hand made, hand painted and aged to reflect the vintage Art Nouveau originals. They measure aprox. 17" in height + base height |

Update: May 2010 Because of a special request I'm attempting to create a Faded Rose Smoker™.

My little cigarette still needs a little bit of work. I haven't decided yet if I'll make the doll's mouth fit around the cig. - this one doesn't - or adapt the end of the cigarette to fit the closed mouth type of doll, much as this one does...may be make both types????
A note about the smoker : These dolls were usually dressed in trousers suits, and sported tams and the occasional fedora. They were made by several doll factories. Some were used to advertise specific cigarette brands. The wondrous Cubeb is the best known among these works of art.
more to come later..... |
