In recent times, these wonderful dolls have become widely used in outsider art. The attraction the artists feel towards these dolls is completely understandable, but I believe they have a dignified beauty all by themselves.
My Diminutive Dolls
Small dolls possess a delicate beauty which is often missed in our fast-paced world. The craftsmanship which went into some of these beauties is unmatched in their larger sisters and brothers. Come with me on a journey to discover these tiny treasures of the doll world.

Such a Small China Doll
There is a quiet, elegant beauty about china head dolls that is unmatched in other types of dolls. This doll is one of the smallest I've ever seen at just under 4" tall. She is in rather rough condition which makes me wonder what types of adventures she must have had in the pocket of some little girl so many years ago.

Merry Christmas!
This 4" bisque beauty was probably a Christmas ornament. Now the poor thing is missing her skis, but at least she still has her ski poles!

Tiny Rubber Babies
When I was little, these tiny babies could be found in gum-machines or at dime stores. These plain little babies had a unique charm all their own.

The Smallest Baby in the World (well, not quite...)
This tiny plastic doll came in a box which billed her as "Smallest Baby in the World". Although I've seen smaller, I still find her quite charming with her small plastic bathtub. What little girl wouldn't love to own a baby like this!

Small Doll Explosion!
I love small dolls! They don't take up much space, they are made in many different materials, and are easy to find almost everywhere you go! If you are traveling, they are easy to carry and easy to display once you get home. Literally, there is something for everyone.
