SALE Yolanda Bello's Jessica a Picture Perfect Baby Ashton Drake Galleries

Dolls : Yolanda Bello

 

The look on "Jessica's" face reminds me of the tickle in my stomach when seeing the world through the innocent eyes of a baby and toddler as they take in the world around them. As a photographer in my 'spare time' I can appreciate the talent that it entailed to achieve a moment Frozen In Time. Her smile is full of merriment, with her chubby little fingers extended in glee. Even her little dimpled knees and inward-pointing toes is that of a real baby! What a great eye Yolanda Bello has. Jessica is one of Yolanda's Picture Perfect Babies, a very widely collected doll series. Her mold was retired - never to be made again.

Jessica is signed by the artist, Yolanda Bello and the number 3031B on the back of the neck.

"Jessica" perpetually rests upon her knees, 14" in her seated state. She is dressed in a cotton top with lace trim on the sleeves. There are embroidered flowers on her collar. Her matching ruffled bottoms are also generously trimmed with lace. She is really cute. Her features in her face with those 2 baby teeth showing, aww, she is just too cute! Her head and hands and forearms and her legs are porcelain and hand painted.

There are 3 scuff marks in the left palm and 1 scuff mark on her right palm. Please see pictures. These do not show with her in position, only when you turn her upside down. There are 2 small black 'dots' in her hair. I do not know what these are or if they will come out. Her peek a boo blanket comes with her.
