Rare Vintage 16 Holly Lena Doll By Artist Marie-Luise Schulz White Balloon
This lovely 16/41cm tall little girl doll is Holly Lena – one of the Holly dolls made by White Balloon in Spain as a big sister to the baby Milly dolls. She is designed by renowned doll artist Marie-Luise Schulz and made in 1999. Holly Lena has a very sweet, innocent face, with painted features. Her long blonde hair is slightly wavy and has one small section tied up to the side with the original elastic. It has never been taken out of its original hairstyle. This is a fully vinyl hard bodied doll with joints at the shoulders, hips and neck. Her head is on a ball joint which allows it great flexibility of movement, which, in turn, makes Holly Lena a very expressive doll. She comes wearing all the original clothes which have never been removed. Her outfit consists of a long blue and beige squared patterned skirt, blue ribbed tights, sturdy beige shoes with Velcro fastenings and a pale blue hooded top with’Holly’ embroidered on the front pocket. The clothes are of extremely high quality. Holly Lena is in excellent clean condition with tangle-free hair. There is some minimal fading to her top, but it is not immediately obvious and she is, in all other respects, in As New condition. From a smoke-free home. Suitable from 3+ but given that she is 25 years old, she would like to live with someone who can care for her gently and keep her looking gorgeous!
