2012 - We have just updated our page with  Bets and Amy's gorgeous new dolls! We always have a hard time picking our Dollery favorites!  Remember, these beauties are all just limited to five world wide! "Tika" is already sold out.   We are taking orders now with a deposit of 25% down is required to order against our order and we will work with you on extended payment plans. Be sure to email kmalone@dollery.com for all the details and pricing and place your orders early. These editions are all under  5 on Bet's  and Amy's dolls so they do sell out quickly!  Be sure to also email us your information if you would like to be added to our Boxel mailing list and receive automatic updates on their work as well as our free annual doll show catalogues.  Bets shows in Nuremburg at the toy fair the last weekend in January so generally these editions sell out very quickly. She is not going to Idex or Toy Fair in 2012. Please contact kmalone@dollery.com or call 800-447-Doll ext 22 outside Ma or 781-447-6677 inside Ma for price quotes as Boxel's prices fluctuate depending on the dollar. We will "lock" in your price when you order your doll rest assured. We try to be competitive and fair with our pricing always so be sure to contact us!

This year we celebrate our 30th Anniversary doll show. Nine years ago at our 21st Anniversary show in October we introduced these beauties to our collectors and they were a huge success. Every year we carry them they become increasingly more popular as avid collectors see these works of art in person. 

About the artists (courtesy of Bets & Amy Van Boxel) -  Her whole life Bets van Boxel  says was fascinated by people. At first she expressed herself by painting and drawing people, but soon she wanted to make them three-dimensional, so their posture, facial expression and every detail of their clothing would show to full advantage. The material that Bets uses is porcelain. Porcelain is a material that survives through centuries and it has the right "skin" to make the doll as lifelike as possible. Common people in their natural surroundings inspire her. The children, the sphere of the country and its people Jos and Bets meet on their journeys, will be translated into a doll. In order to make her dolls lifelike she uses, when possible, the authentic cloth and accessories which they bring home from the different countries.  Every doll has handcrafted crystal eyes and a wig from human hair or mohair.  After her education at the Design Academy daughter Amy van Boxel started her own small business. In 1996 Amy joined her parents  and now she makes her own collection of dolls.  -  Direct quote of Bio direct  from Bets & Amy Van Boxel

The Nenets rely on traditional clothing. A Nenets man wears a Malitsa which is a coat made of around 4 reindeer skins, the fur being on the inside. In extreme cold conditions men wear yet another layer of reindeer fur, known as a Gus. The Gus has its fur on the outside. The women wear a Yagushka which has a double layer of around 8 reindeer skins and which is buttoned at the front. Both men and women wear reindeer skin boots tied up with a belt.

Country of Origin: Pakistan

Siera and Aarya are from the Kalash tribe in the Hindu-Kush area of Northern Pakistan. According to some scholars, the Kalash people are direct descendants of Alexander the Great's soldiers. The light skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes of many Kalash people provide an interesting evidence to their Caucasian origins.  The Kalash are known for their unique way of dressing, especially the attire of their womenfolk. All women wear black robes called 'Piran' and it takes at least nine meters (almost 10 yards!) of cloth to make one dress. The women wear an extraordinarily large headgear called 'Kopus' embellished with buttons, beads and shells.
