She was made in 1996 in New Zealand. It makes her 28 years old! Petunia is clearly Vintage girl! She is one The Flowers of Heart miniature collection. But she is one of the hardest to confine as well.
This Petunia ll is # 24 of 500 only made. Doll has full porcelain body with porcelain limbs and Human hair wig. Petunia ll also has exact of her bigger sister very beautiful face. Quality of Jan McLean dolls are incredible. This specific collection was made in New Zealand.Every doll was hand crafted with love and examined and signed by Jan McLean in person before she was put for sale. And I never seen another Petunia ll since then. She doesn't have any chips or crackers (at list I didn't see any) Dolls outfit is nice and clean. Human hair wig is still awesome. She was displayed in my very clean dolls room under the cover.
I bought for her stand from Mundia dolls collection. I choose this stand for the reason It was very well made stand with wooden base. But it has Mundia little plate on it.
It didn't bother me. Her porcelain limbs are fine but fill a little bit looser than limbs on couple of my other dolls from the the same collection I had.
But Petunia ll is also older than another dolls from the same collection. Her position still can be changed but not to extreme (see pictures). Her had turns just fine. Petunia ll is a Figure skater. The biggest issue she has is her figure skaters. The skating blades (metal part) are bent. Please see the pictures I provided. Also Please check her boots. The hair decor piece is not perfect also (see my pictures) but is hardly noticeable. Dear Buyers I Do Draw your attention to every imperfection I noticed in my doll.Some resellers put dolls for sale in Great condition (in their opinion) but buyers receive very ruined doll happened to me many times! I do hope you can see Petunia ll incredible beauty and understand her extreme Value as well. Please READ very carefully and check every single PICTURE I provided.
Please ask QUESTIONS if something is not clear to you. I will reply in timely manner but mainly in the evening because I work. This doll is NOT PERFECT but she is RARE INDEED and still Can be a Perl of your collection for many years to come! My Petunia ll priced accordingly to her flaws and values she has.
My Petunia has her COA and even her original box(see pictures for condition). I will absorb that extra.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING AND LOOKING! But I think it is very important information. Thank you again and very wonderful Day!
