A little doll made with vintage beads - glass, lucite, plastic - and 28 gauge craft wire. Because of the delicate wiring and age of the beads, the bead dolls in this collection are meant only for display and not for active play. Each has a small loop at the top of its head for hanging as an ornament if desired. All beads are vintage except where indicated.

measurements:

• height = about 7 cm
