Why You’ll Love It
This exquisite 1:12 scale porcelain girl doll is a handcrafted reproduction of an antique miniature doll by IGMA Artisan Pat Boldt. Standing 4” tall, she features delicately china-painted facial details, softly blushed cheeks, and beautifully styled blonde ringlets beneath an elaborate lace bonnet adorned with tiny ribbons. Her antique-inspired cream and blush silk dress features puffed sleeves, layered lace, and intricately detailed trimming, complemented by dark stockings and painted boots. She holds two even smaller porcelain companion dolls, each with individually painted faces, curled hair, and finely tailored period clothing. The three dolls showcase Boldt's exceptional attention to detail and micro-miniature craftsmanship.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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