hettieQUEEN ANNE STYLE AND ANTIQUE STYLE WOODEN DOLLS
by Anne Reiss
I am happy to make a wooden Queen Anne Style or Grodnertal doll to your specifications.
For more information about purchasing or ordering a doll please email me at
This little "Peddler" is featured in Early American Life magazine's 2011 Holiday Directory on Page 54. She is 11 1/2 inches tall and has jointed hips and knees.
"Grodner Tal" dolls. Also known an "Peg or Penny Wooden" and "Tuck Comb," are not being reproduced in hand carved wood today possibly because they require a great deal more carving than Queen Anne style dolls.
Early craftsman in the Grodner Tal region stopped making these dolls because as time went on the carving became simpler and simpler and they became scorned by serious wood craftsmen. I think it is time to bring these delightful little ladies back into the spotlight and give them the respect they deserve as charming examples of early doll making.
