We are proud to present a series of dolls based on the immortal "Alice" books written by Lewis Carroll and illustrated by Sir John Tenniel. Tenniel's illlustrations appeared in the first edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland first published in 1865 and were so definitive as to be forever associated with the text. A sequel titled Through the Looking-Glass and what Alice Found There was first published in 1871 and featured the further adventures of Alice once again brilliantly illustrated by Tenniel. Both books were enormously popular when they first appeared and remain among the most important and enchanting in the realm of classic children's literature.

Alice in Wonderland - the premiere piece in the collection - is faithfully based on the original Tenniel images and vividly brought to life by R. JOHN WRIGHT DOLLS. Standing approximately 17" tall, Alice is fully jointed and made entirely of the finest all-wool felt incorporating a realistic sculptural body and a compelling portrait face with hand painted features. Her lovely hands have individual fingers and she has a meticulously hand-rooted mohair wig. Lewis Carroll's beloved heroine is dressed in the trademark Victorian dress tailored of custom-dyed felt topped by a cotton pinafore trimmed in silk. Around her waist is a matching silk sash. Alice wears custom-made cotton stockings and hand cobbled leather slippers. As a final perfect touch, at her throat is a custom-made gold-plated brooch engraved with the letter "A".
