Our lovely little doll is hand cast in solid pewter and cast in silver-tone. She will make a wonderful addition to your work area, constantly keeping an eye over your creations and projects.
Better yet! Why not make her into a new creation? Oh, what an exquisite focal piece she could be on a necklace. Since she is made of pewter, which is a soft metal, she could be easily drilled to create a hanging hole.
She measures 1-3/4 inches tall, 5/8 inch wide and 1/2 inch deep.
Frozen Charlottes (aka Frozen Charlottas)
are small molded dolls that were popular in the 19th and early
20th centuries and were so named for a favorite American legend.
Lovely Charlotte, anxiously anticipating the New Year's Eve Ball,
settled into the open sleigh of her beloved Charlie. She refused her
mother's offer of a woolen blanket for warmth, claiming it would
wrinkle her gown. Gliding for miles across the snow under the
starlit sky, the couple finally arrived at the ball - Charlie with
an icy brow and Charlotte as a frozen corpse. Parents often used the
story and the dolls to remind children of what can happen to those
how disobey their parents.
