WHY YOU’LL LOVE HER: A bath time diorama for your miniature scenes! A jubilant sculpted clay little infant doll with an elated and carefree expression on her tiny face. She has blue eyes and laughing, open mouth with visible gums! She is wigged in a head of auburn, frizzy and wild curly hair topped with a tied hair bow. She is glued into a metal washtub filled with iridescent bubbles spilling over its sides, with one bubble on her hand, and more in her hair! A little folded towel and a tiny sculpted clay yellow duck sit nearby.
STYLING: Place this happy-go-lucky little bathing baby in a nursery or play room scene, a bathroom or even out in the yard. This diorama would easily lend itself to a country, rustic, or primitive styled 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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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.
