Have you seen
Luna?
|
 |
Luna is a
pixie kitten, one of
those mystical winged creatures of folklore with pointed ears who are
said to
be uncommonly beautiful.
|
|
Luna’s wide
open blue eyes are
brimming with kindness and good will, and she has not an ounce of
malice in her
heart. She is amiable and good-humored in all that she does. She never
ever
does anything naughty.
|
 |
Luna loves to dance.
Although her
ballet moves may be just a bit awkward and ungainly, you must admit her
tutu is
really pretty.
|
 |
Luna likes
people, and she can be
very helpful with work around the house or in the garden. If you lend
her a
feather duster, or even a Swiffer, she will whisk away the cobwebs in
the
uppermost corners. She will flit through the garden and land on a
branch where,
with her odd little voice, she will summon the bees to pollinate the
flowers.
|
 |
Pixie
kittens bring untold
blessings to those who are fond of them. Just ask Luna. She will tell
you.
|
 |
Luna
is an
original one-of-a-kind
work of art, created from our own design and pattern. She is made from
100%
cotton fabric which has been sewn, stuffed, and completely hand painted
with
acrylic paints. She is approximately 8 ¼ inches from the tips of her
ears to the tips of her toes, and approximately 6 inches tall when
seated.
|
 |
Luna’s arms
and legs are
button-jointed with antique-looking silver filigreed metal buttons,
so she
can easily pose. Her
face was sculpted
from paperclay smoothed into her fabric head. Her front paws are needle
sculpted, and her whiskers are made from stiffened cotton thread.
|
 |
| Luna’s curled
tail enables her to sit very well balanced all by herself on a shelf, or
a
table, or in a cabinet. |
 |
Luna’s
delightful tutu is made
from layers of tulle, in lavender pink and lavender blue, with a
hand-sewn
waistband of light blue that snaps at the back and has a soft satin
rose at the
center.
|
 |
| Her mystical wings are made from cotton fabric and are
completely
hand-quilted. |
 |
|
Luna’s
bodysuit is painted rich
lavender blue, with a golden sliver of moon at the neckline. Her tights
are the
color of an orchid, and her ballet shoes are the color of a purple iris.
|
 |
| Luna
is signed and dated, and
sealed with matte varnish for protection and preservation. Luna is meant for
display only. |
 |
Many
hours go into the making of each of our dolls. We
strongly believe in fine craftsmanship and artistry, and we pay great
attention to small details. Each
doll is
a unique work of art, and we are able to produce them in only a very
limited
number. We
do our
best to create
little dolls with big personalities because that is what we love to do.
