18 inch Christmas DOLL/Toy, Collectible-Finlandia Dress












Welcome to treasureisland-gi and thank you for your interest in this auction item!

This is a previously owned item and in the following description I have been as accurate as possible and pointed out any known flaws.

CHRISTMAS SALE

Bring a little feeling of Lapponia, Finland to your Christmas doll collection with this adorable plastic doll.

Beautifully dressed to resemble a young Norwegian girl at the holidays in a bright and vibrant red, green and yellow outfit.

She stands approximately 18 inches tall and is made of hard plastic.  The texture of the plastic on her face, arms and hands is softer than her belly, I do not believe she was ever meant to be undressed.  She has been gently played with at Christmas time by my own daughters, but the dress or tights were never removed, only her hat.  Yes, she does have "hat hair".

Her legs and arms are jointed at the hip and shoulder, are moveable and she can sit unsupported.  Her eyes can and do close when she is laid down and are a nice brown to match her rooted brown hair.  You won't be able to resist the long lashes, chubby  pink cheeks, peachy-pink lips, or those chubby, baby-like fingers and hands.

There are two original tags, one on the back of the hat, it reads Lapponia and the 2nd inside the dress reading Lapponia Made in Finland.

The material of the tights, hat and dress is red and green felt.  Her outfit is trimmed in lace and various patterned rick rack.

Her face and hands could use a gentle cleaning, but I would feel more comfortable leaving that up to the collector.  Also, please remember she is previously owned, and played with and I did find a small mark on the white collar up near the shoulder.  The booties have the nappy wool look, and are a little dusty, there is a small hole at the seam of one on the bottom.

It was my understanding this sweet little doll was used as a promotional item for Finlandia Vodka at holiday time  around the 1970's.  She really is in nice condition for this length of time, but then she did only come to visit us at Christmas time.

Bring a little Norwegian charm to your doll collecting, or Christmas decorating next year with this precious, loveable doll.  She could also be a wonderful, new friend for your precious, loveable "doll".
