Stephanie Blythe Art Dolls

With a doll making career that spans nearly 30 years, Stephanie Blythe’s art dolls are amongst the best available from artists today. Inspired by fantasy, and particularly faeries, each one is created to ‘inspire an awakening of dreams, memories, stories, longings through the tactile, the sensual, the unexpected and the surprising.’ Stephanie’s background in textile design led to an interest in antique fabrics which are then given a new lease of life on the figures. The dolls themselves are white porcelain with layers of colour to build up depth. Each one is unique too – although Stephanie does utilize moulds, each piece is then individually sculpted once it comes out of the mould to give every doll their own character.
