Most brides think of their wedding day
as the "big day." But there may be no one who puts more emphasis on the
word big than a gypsy bride. Her heritage is steeped in tradition,
including a legacy of sensational wedding gowns that are brilliant in
colour, laden with glittering rhinestones and loaded with layers of
fabric. Now, this gypsy tradition is re-imagined in this Mirella Bride
Doll, a gorgeous porcelain doll created by Master Doll Artist Cindy
McClure exclusively for The Ashton-Drake Galleries. This stunning,
dark-haired first-ever Collector's Edition grand-jeweled gypsy bride
doll - whose name means "adored" - is beautifully handcrafted in the
finest bisque porcelain, meticulously hand-painted and softly blushed.
Her spectacular gown features a lace appliqued bodice generously adorned
with pearlescent beads, shimmering sequins, and dozens of genuine
Swarovski® crystals that twinkle through her gown as they catch the
light - for a total of 29 Swarovski crystals!
All
eyes will be on this stunning bride doll and her amazing gown! The
show-stopping skirt features layer upon layer of scalloped tiers of pink
satin, white tulle and taffeta, all covering a netted underskirt, satin
pantaloons and a sparkling satin and lace garter. Her pink satin belt
is shimmers with a large Swarovski crystal. Her soft, dark-blue eyes
glow with her loving yet strong spirit - paying homage to her Bohemian
heritage - while her chestnut-brown hair is gathered in a fluffy
ponytail that cascades over her one shoulder. Her crystal tiara, with a
large center Swarovski crystal, holds her tulle veil in place. Opulent
drop earrings, a rhinestone collar necklace with a sparkling Swarovski
drop, and her solitaire diamond-look wedding ring add to her shimmering
elegance. Standing an impressive 21 inches tall, she's poseable; gently
turn her head to the perfect angle to allow her chandelier earrings to
catch the light.
