Painting the Japan Fanfan dolls took a little more time than anticipated, but they are all done now.
I will start shipping your orders tomorrow. I will send out tracking numbers next week. Thanks for your support and understanding.

Unbelievably today is the ten years anniversary of Anouk. I took the very first pre orders on this day, a decade ago!
Thank you all for your support and loyalty. There would be no Anouk without you.
Above, a little trip down memory lane: the very first concept sketch where I thought about naming her Capucine, and the first experiments with branding and art work.
Happy Thanks giving everybody. I'm so thankful to all of you for your loyalty, encouragement, and support over the past 9 years.
Its very tough working as a self employed doll designer, and you all keep me going. I appreciate each and every one of you.
These lovely photos are by Kim London.
So here is the special OOAK Anouk doll I created for the Rome Fashion doll convention charity auction in support of the Red Cross.
The inspiration was from 1950s word and sandal Roman/Biblical epic films, which were very popular then. Think Deborah Kerr in Quo Vadis, Susan Hayward in Demetrius and the Gladiators, Rita Hayworth in Salomé, and Jean Simmons in Spartacus, and you get the idea.
Her beautiful dress was made by Andymy Andrei Teican .
She will be put up for auction soon, and I will post a link so you can bid if you wish.
