Why You’ll Love It
A distinctive 1:12 scale artisan gentleman doll with finely sculpted porcelain head and hands, dressed in a wonderfully textured charcoal wool tweed three-piece suit. His mature face is finished with short dark grey hair and delicate gold wire-rimmed eyeglasses, giving him a scholarly, professional appearance.
He wears a loose-fitting charcoal-and-white tweed jacket with matching trousers, layered over a smooth light grey waistcoat with tiny front buttons. A cream high-collared shirt and subtle tan ascot-style tie complete the ensemble, while glossy black dress shoes finish the look. In his right hand he holds a slender black fountain pen with gold-tone detailing, a small accessory that gives him an especially convincing writer, lawyer, or professor character. His arms are movable for gentle posing.
Perfect for
A library, study, law office, university office, writer’s room, gentleman’s club, private office, or traditional period interior. He would also make an excellent professor, attorney, writer, editor, accountant, or businessman.

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 While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.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