About this product

Product Information

This reference book will be invaluable to anyone who owns bisque dolls. The information about handling dolls, about the care of dolls, and how to style wigs applies to modern dolls as well as antiques. Step-by-step directions, including photographs, on how to restring a ball jointed composition body, how to set eyes and make eye repairs, how to replace broken fingers, how to mend leather bodies, and how to cover damaged bodies, and much more, are easy to follow. The author believes that doing what is in the doll's best interest is most important: to never make irreversible or incorrect repairs.

  • Useful for a novice

    Useful information for collectors on how to clean and repair dolls. There are many pictures and diagrams detailing how to restring dolls. The author provides advice and recommendations on the types of cleaners that can reveal the beauty of an antique bisque doll without removing the paint. Very helpful.
