Every doll is handmade - individually created and constructed from vintage fabrics, designer fabrics, recycled materials and haberdashery. Some faces are made of cloth, needle-sculpted then hand-embroidered or painted. Others are clay-over-cloth, hand-sculpted and painted.
 
These one of a kind dolls are not just for children. Many adults covet them as unique collectable dolls to adorn their homes. Each doll is signed and dated and comes with a Diamond Hill Doll certificate of authenticity. My range includes vintage-style, modern, multi-racial and good old-fashioned ragdoll. They all come dressed in a one-off outfit designed especially for her.
 
My dolls have the old fashioned method of button joints at the limbs that allow for movement - so you can pose them any way you like. I use quality materials throughout, including Tibetan lambs wool, Peruvian wool and mohair for the hair.
 
I buy fair-trade where possible and I recycle materials. My doll making is eco-friendly using natural fabrics, natural dyes and cotton thread. Safety standard stuffing is used in all my dolls. For dolls with painted faces the paint is non-toxic.

Dreamed-up doll
I also make customized dolls.
 
How about a mini-me or a look-a-like doll that resembles your best friend, your child, your pet? Or do you have a special piece of fabric that you don't know what to do with, perhaps some lace or your child's first school dress or nan's old apron or a favourite design? Or has your daughter drawn the doll she dreams of?
 
Let me design and make a fully personalised doll to your wishes. Describe your dreamed-up doll using my submission page, sending me a photo if you wish.
