Why You’ll Love It
This fabulous OOAK Frankenstein’s monster doll by Sharon Cariola (dated 2005) is an unforgettable example of character sculpture in miniature. Hand-sculpted in clay, he has a gaunt, expressive face, heavy brows, sparse dark hair, and carefully rendered stitched details around his neck and wrists. His slightly stooped stance and loosely outstretched hands give him a wonderfully lifelike, lumbering presence. Distressed charcoal clothing completes his forlorn monster appearance, but his oversized, beautifully weathered sculpted shoes may be the most delightful detail of all. At 6 ½” tall, he makes a commanding centerpiece for any classic horror display.
Perfect for: Haunted laboratories, mad scientists’ workshops, gothic castles, Halloween dollhouses, classic monster scenes, horror collections, and Sharon Cariola collections.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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.
