The Art of The Toymaker in gallery 8

Here is a sneeky taster of the exhibition that I have curated in gallery 8 at the national trusts museum of childhood, Sudbury hall--Derbyshire. Entitled, ' The Art of the Toymaker '

I have even included a pearly queen ....

I also discovered an old mold, that I was priviledged to take a press from, for the museum--not for my own commercial purpose.

I have also include a beautiful art doll...

My beloved Queen Anne, and the beautiful black red riding hood and her tuck comb doll companions...

Wax dolls, penny woodens, and my favourite googly again !!
( If you remember I featured her in last years exhibition too, as she is my favourite :)  )

I am also showing wax pour over doll, porcelain, china and delicate oriental dolls finely carved--and the odd ted too !

The pedlar doll, the rocking red riding hood and the dancing pig are great favourites of mine too !

So come and see it all before its too late, it ends at the end of september, then from october the 1st there will be a new exhibition I have created, but more of that later.

Have a great weekend !! :)
