Princess is a dreamer, and an enthusiastic believer in fairy tales.

It has been her favorite chair ever since.

Someday, she firmly believes, she will become queen, and she will rule her kingdom from her favorite chair.

Princess wears a lovely blue dress that sets off the color of her eyes. It has an antique rose flower in the front. Her collar and lower sleeves are winter blue.

Princess is a one-of-a-kind work of art, and is meant for display only. She was sculpted from paperclay in multiple stages, to allow for drying and detailing.

Princess was painted under a magnifying light, with tiny brushes, one hair at a time. She is signed and sealed with matte varnish for protection and preservation, and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Princess is 1:12 dollhouse scale. (One inch equals one foot.) She is 1 and 1/2 inches tall. Her chair is 5 inches tall and is included with her. It is a hard molded dollhouse chair with painted details.

The little girl Regina lives with gave her one of her smallest rag dolls, and Regina has come to adore her. Regina named her Ragsy. She loves to hug Ragsy’s soft body, and admires her pretty two-toned pink dress. It’s kind of like the two-toned dress she herself is wearing.

Meesha and May are handmade, original, one-of-a-kind Himalayan cat and kitten art dolls, hand painted and hand sculpted in paperclay by artist Anne Ruffing, with sewing done by Elizabeth Ruffing.

Meesha is a charming mama Himalayan cat, whose favorite time of the year is May, the very name she
gave to her sweet little kitten.

During that time of the year, Meesha likes to take May out for walks to look at the daffodils, hyacinths, and tulips all coming to life.

May gets very excited about these excursions. She bounces around, swatting at the flower buds and chasing bugs.

Then, quite suddenly, she will need a nap. That is why Meesha sewed a big pocket into her pinafore, so May could slip inside and fall asleep on the way back home.

Meesha and May both see the world through beautifully vibrant blue eyes.

May is often carefully tucked into the pocket of Meesha’s flowered pinafore, where, through the wise teachings of her mom, she learns about this world that has newly become her own.

Meesha’s pinafore was designed by Elizabeth Ruffing, who hand drew all the tiny pattern pieces and did most of the stitching by hand, with a needle and thread. It is made from a pretty blue floral cotton.

Her pocket was also carefully stitched by hand after fitting it to May, to make sure she could be comfortably nestled inside when she wants to take a nap or be carried by Meesha.

Under her pinafore, Meesha wears a rich blue blouse with a hand-painted rose-colored flower that sets off her crisp white collar. The scalloped trim on her collar matches the trim on her cuffs.

Her pantaloons are painted a delicate pink, and from them emerge two pretty kitty legs wearing painted tights that are striped in two shades of blue.

Meesha wears light golden-brown painted shoes, which are high-buttoned, and, of course, extremely fashionable.

Meesha is 8 and 1/2 inches tall.

May, in her rosy-red painted pinafore and yellow blouse, is only 1 and 3/4 inches tall. She was entirely sculpted from paperclay, which is the sculpting clay used to create Meesha’s thoughtful face.

The rest of Meesha’s head, body, arms, and legs are made from 100% cotton fabric, which is sewn, stuffed, and then painted with acrylic paints. Her arms are button-jointed, and her paws are needle-sculpted.

Meesha’s body and pinafore were created from our own designs and patterns. Meesha’s beautiful face and May’s little self were hand sculpted in paperclay without the use of any molds, and then lovingly painted by hand.

Meesha can sit upright all by herself, with the help of her tail, which supports her nicely. She can also sit in a doll chair or stand with a small doll stand. (Chair and doll stand not included.) May can sit in Meesha’s pocket, or lie in her lap or in a little doll house sized cradle (doll house furniture not included).
