When did winter become more about the shoveling of driveways and weariness of ice than about the sledding down a hill and wariness of burning our tongues on hot chocolate? The days of snow being thought of as the world’s greatest toys may be behind you, but recapturing some of the magic of winter is well within reach. Enjoy

Meticulous hand-painting and an enormous amount of patience and time brings each sculpture to life". All of the Wee Forest Folks are hand-crafted entirely in the small town of Carlisle in eastern Massachusetts.

Peter Wolf So dedicated is Peter Wolf, the German doll artist, that he seldom leaves his studio except in search of the rare antique silks and laces that he uses to costume his dolls. The artist carves each of his precious dolls entirely by hand, applies the early-style enamel eyes, and then hand-paints in an exacting antique manner. His specialty is the English wooden doll of the 18th century known as "Queen Anne", and his in-depth research ensures that each is made exactly like the originals. With jointed hips to allow each doll to bow in an appropriate courtly manner, painted creamy complexions with dot lashes, blush spots on cheeks and outlined lips, a few even with beauty spots! Mother And Baby By Peter Wolf Utilizing classic English sculpting techniques used as early as the mid-17th century, Peter Wolf has created yet another vintage masterpiece in this Mother & Baby. The Mother is an entirely hand sculpted wood doll with exquisitely handpainted details including single brush-stroke eye-lashes and eye-brows. Mother wears a superb costume of the era styled of antique fabrics, with a matching green wire-frame silk bonnet. Her baby wears a knit cotton dress with an orange silk bodice and a green felt hat. Each is signed, numbered and dated, from a limited edition of 10. Mother is a grand 22". SD-867. $2400. ♼ Nannerl and Mozart In the mid 18th century, Leopold and Anna Maria Mozart lived in a small Salzburg apartment with their two children, Amadeus and Maria Anna, known as "Nannerl." Though both were highly gifted musically, Amadeus Mozart became world famous and Nannerl moved onto marriage and children as a woman of her time was expected to do. Now Peter Wolf has immortalized both of these gifted children, and who better to sculpt a doll of the Austrian-born musical genius and his sibling than the German-born doll savant? Each piece is entirely hand-carved, painted and costumed with exquisite detail. Each is signed and numbered, from a limited edition of 30.

O n e -O f - A -K i n d B e a r s A m y G o o d r i c h , O n e -O f - A - K i n d B e a r s Amy Goodrich of Ireland doesn’t like to think of herself as a teddy bear creator so much as just an artist, and with teddy bears like these you can see why. In her own words, she states that each bear "is treated like a painting, although three-dimensional mohair is the medium". Each of her teddy bears, which are all one-of-a-kind, sports not only a different aesthetic but often an entirely different method of adornment highlighted by scenes that are hand-painted by the artist.

A Grand Regal Friend Bear When Amy Goodrich speaks of her bears being the canvas for her art, sometimes, as with Regal Friend, it’s a very literal canvas for very literal art, as painted Princes and Princesses adorn not only the torso, but every part of this grand-sized bear. 28".

Mull anium Art Though the phrase "Steampunk" first originated in the 1980’s, the roots of the genre were first established in the time period it emulates, the 1890s, with the works of early science fiction giants like H.G. Wells, Jules Verne, and Mary Shelley. Today the genre and its precepts can be found in every layer of entertainment and now, thanks to Pennsylvanian artists Jim and Tori Mullan, the genre has infiltrated classic American art pieces. Jim and Tori’s parallel love of antique watches and vintage toys drew them together over two decades ago, but their artistic endeavors bonded them for life. Artistic endeavors which include the adorning antique metal pieces to wooden animal sculptures forming a striking juxtaposition. Each piece is as unique in its creation as it is in its originality, a surefire centerpiece for your home.
Turned Head Binocul ar Bird Resting atop antique French binoculars, the wooden bird features a suspiciously turned head to keep an ever vigilant (and antique clockwork adorned) eye. Metal adornments include wings composed of clipped metal rulers and classic watch faces. 5 ½". GH-323. $275.
Because each wooden piece is adorned using unique antique pieces (such as binoculars and croquet balls) no two pieces are exactly alike. Each is signed and dated by the artist.
"T i p t o p " S o n gb i r d o n Croquet Ball An antique blue croquet ball is the perfect perch for this blueand-green songbird. Antique adornments include a "TIPTOP" metal label on his breast, wings comprised of cut metal signs and clockwork gears, and in his back, a small embedded compass. 6 ½ ". We have only one. GH-314. $265.

D e bb e e T h i b a u lt "Each of my pieces start from stories I make up about them", says the talented California artist whose studio produces the imaginative work shown on these pages and elsewhere in this catalog. Traditional yet with a touch of quirky, the designs of Debbee Thibault are boundary-breaking and nostalgic at one and the same time. That may be why so many collectors will agree that when you have bought one piece you will want them all. Each is made in her California studio with a handmade paper mache technique that lends an aged and appealing patina, and then hand-painted to achieve a highly characterized appearance. Named by the artist, each is signed and dated.

The Prince Of course, every Mom knows that her little boy is a prince, and this shy yet impish fellow from the workshops of American artist Debbee Thibault seems to be trying to prove the point.
