Beautiful work, @siberian! :-D

These kind of dolls used to be on fashion, maybe half a century ago, or more... but they seem to have disappeared altogether. Nice to see you working on this.

Sort:  

Tilda is an interior textile doll created by the Norwegian designer Tone Finnanger in 1999 and widely distributed around the world. The most recognizable signs of the Tilda doll are eyes in the form of small dots and ruddy cheeks on a rag doll figure. Tilda is usually feminine, but there are very different variations of tildes, including puppets of animals. In addition, the world of Tilde has its own ideology of life, approximately as described by the author - when everything is completely imperfect, and a capriciously romantic doll with its own look at beauty can wear a ball dress with rubber boots, put a rose in a jug, and in a crystal vase a bouquet of weeds .

Thanks for the information. I remember my grandmother had a few rag dolls, not exactly like this, but somewhat similar. That's the last memory I have from seeing such dolls.

YES, the old dolls are somewhat similar. Thanks for the feedback.
