Danbury Mint Beautiful Brides Coll-WINTER BLISS SPEC EDN Doll by Rustie (2003)

Description: Danbury Mint Beautiful Brides Collection WINTER BLISS SPECIAL EDITION Porcelain Doll by Rustie (2003) Winter Bliss is a beautiful 26 porcelain bride doll. She is a vision in her lavish wedding ensemble that is covered in sparkling sequins and rhinestones. The wedding dress extends to 32" side-to-side from the front or the side views. Her exquisite facial features are hand painted and she has a porcelain head, partial chest, arms and legs with a stuffed cloth torso. I think her eyes are blue, but a lot of other Winter Bliss dolls I saw the seller described their eye color as lavender. The doll and her costume are in fine condition, no issues noted. Her thick soft curly blonde hair deserves a special nod as well, kept intact by the hair net. This lovely bride doll is missing a few items: :faux fur stole; :elaborate fur hat with attached tulle veil; :Diamond ring :COA paper to determine if doll was a limited edition doll, which I'm thinking she was; :faux diamond necklace, substituted; :original stand. Winter Bliss has her original faux diamond dangle earrings, but no matching necklace, so I made a substitute necklace because her neck and chest was so open she needed a jewelry accessory there. It's nothing special but it adds to her pictures. I took lots of pictures and they serve as part of my description, so please zoom in. The stand in her pictures isn't her original stand, and will be included, but the doll actually needs one a size larger which I did not have. I also noticed the dolls neck mark was hard to see, and did not have the limited edition number at all. I highlighted what was there with a pencil, see pics near the end. No other markings or tags were found on the doll. Winter Bliss is used, but the doll and bride costume are in wonderful condition. The box had a lot of tape which I worked diligently to remove, sticky residue and all. While it's not perfect, it's better than it was, has minor wear consistent with its age. It is in good condition, no rips or tears, see pics and zoom in. If you need perfect, please don't buy. This doll's shipper box is very sturdy, is quite tall and with the doll inside weighs a good bit too, remember she is 26"tall. Her shipper box is used but luckily was the perfect size, did not have a new box that size or that sturdy. Please review the description and pictures and ask any questions before making a decision to purchase. NO RETURNS. Shipping in USA only. Since USPS is not always the cheapest way to ship, I might send it by UPS or Fedex. The box weight, size and the travel distance determines the shipping choice too. If you have a reason why you prefer one service over another please let me know immediately after your purchase. Thank you for looking at my auction.
