Ginger haired baby Archie is a blue eyed, floppy-headed heart stealer. From the top of his head to the tips of his toes, this ruddy-skinned charmer is looking for his forever mama. Created from the Linde Scherer Linda sculpt, Archie is about 4 pounds of cuddly love. That face is a little grouchy and a whole LOT of boy!
His skin is extremely rosy. He has a few minor mismarks and his complexion finish is quite dry. If you need a satiny soft skin on a reborn doll, Archie’s not for you. He comes with two receiving blankets, the soft toy lion rattle shown in the photos, both the Carters outfits shown, three diapers, a care instructions sheet and a pair of Christmas socks. (The design is a surprise but here’s a hint: Comet and Blixen!)
Archie is one of the first reborns I have made. His red hair is hand drawn with Prismacolor pencils (now sealed). I am a new artist and my babies are priced accordingly. Archie’s upper chest is understuffed and his head is very floppy. His head and arms do not rotate but his legs do in the sockets. He doesn’t naturally sit up straight without support. I am not a professional artist so I take closeup pics of my work (these are all In daylight mode **task lamp** light) in order to show it honestly. Archie is not a professionally made doll, but he has a genuine piece of my heart in him. I make a connection with every baby I create because it’s such a special and personal kind of art.
Mostly I just want to make baby dolls for people to love! Dollies are all about love, especially reborns. You are purchasing a perfectly imperfect handmade little baby doll to hold and care for. It is a collectible, NOT a toy, and needs to be handled like a real baby to preserve it. Because of the glass beads and poly pellets used to weight him on the inside, Archie is not intended for child’s play. My home studio is smoke free.
He does have a magnet behind his mouth for a pacifier but it was done incorrectly and pacifiers hang funny off the side of his mouth. So I am not selling the magnetic pacifier as a feature, but it is there. It’s just wonky.
I do not offer refunds, returns or exchanges of any kind. All sales are final. I ship within three BUSINESS (M to F) days of receiving your cleared, complete PayPal payment, via insured and tracked USPS Priority Mail. The flat rate of 25 is good for all 50 US states except Hawaii and Alaska, which are an additional $15 each. Any holds PayPal places on your payment will delay the processing of your order.
The cat in the pictures is not included. Miss Blue likes to supervise all the babies’ photo sessions.
Thanks for looking and Dolly On!!
