Why You’ll Love It
This is a heartwarming young girl doll by IGMA Fellow Catherine Muniere of France. Hand-sculpted in clay with Catherine Muniere's signature modern aesthetic and lifelike expression, she features blue eyes, softly blushed cheeks, and chestnut brown hair adorned with a white ribbon. Her mouth is slightly open as if she were talking, and her two little front teeth are visible! She is dressed in a handcrafted ivory dress with lace trim and a pink silk ribbon rose, knitted stockings, and handmade black leather shoes. Her poseable arms and legs allow for natural display throughout a miniature scene.

A Note About Value
Every miniature we offer has been carefully evaluated for its craftsmanship, rarity, condition, provenance, and collectibility. Many of the artisan pieces we sell are one-of-a-kind works that may never appear on the market again. While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.
Our pricing reflects the miniature's place within today's collector market and the years we've spent studying the artists, histories, and values that make these tiny works of art so special.
A Commitment to Research
Every miniature has a story, and uncovering it is one of our greatest passions. We carefully research each piece, but unsigned or illegible works can remain mysteries. If you can identify an artist or provide additional information, we'd be delighted to hear from you and will gladly update the listing to preserve their legacy.
