Rotraut Schrott
February 2007 We got the two of
the very best dolls at Magnum Opus we think...this new Korean Bride is drop
dead gorgeous... she was our number one pick! Snow White....she is stunning and has been
nominated for the one of a kind award of excellence for dolls over
$2500.00 in the one of a kind category for 2007. This comes as no
surprise though as Rotraut has many, many of these awards. Rotraut just
attended our last doll and show plans to also attend our 2007 25th
Anniversary doll show. We also have a couple other pieces available including a beautiful girl w/baby and
another little baby. Don't miss them! Email

Korean Bride - One of a Kind - Wow!
Dollery Favorite - $8000.00
Detail on the Korean Bride straight
from Rotraut - SOLD
The Korean Bride
wears a yellow underwear of taffeta with many flounces or valances
(4) trimmed with braid trimmings, pearls and little golden buttons.
The "kimono" is cream colored silk with trimmings of flowers and
animals, framed with ribbons and golden threads, made a lot of work,
also in the back. The buttons you see on Photo are sculpted and
painted by me. The masks on head are sculpted, also painted by me,
and shows the many faces of a Korean Bride. The whole doll is a real
On-of-Kind, no molds. The dress is created by me. I bought the lion,
an old one, on the flee-market, and I costumed him, while I made the
woolen mane with pearls, and embroidered the face and more. The
shoes are made of straw, typical Asian. I put on each two golden
cords. The head does not turn. The size is 35 1/2. inches. The
custom is, that the Korean Bride or the "Gak-Si" will be accompanied
by "Bunk-Chung-Saja" the lion with a woolen mane. The wig is very
long human hair.

2006 Update! We were honored to have
Rotraut attend our last 2005 doll show in person all the way from
Germany. This year (2006) she will honor us again with a rare
personal appearance. Rotraut didn't even show in NY this year. Rotraut
is shown below at our last show. The stunning bride was created just for
our show which sold immediately. Naema and Sali was also created
especially for the Dollery. This stunning pair is very reasonably priced
for Rotraut's work. Avid collector's familiar with Rotraut's work are
aware that many of her individual dolls in the last five years have sold
for 10K and this is a pair for just $7600.00. Rotraut attended her very
first doll show in 1988 right here at the Dollery. This was her first
appearance ever in the United States. She was sculpting for Gadco who
were producing her work in porcelain and vinyl at the time. "Martina"
was one of the biggest hits of the decade. When asked by the dolls
magazines in the year 2000 what artists we thought would be known in the
next millennium we did not hesitate to put Rotraut on our list. For
years to get an original piece from Rotraut was not possible. After
leaving Gadco about seven or eight years ago Rotraut decided to go back
to her true love and create only her original work once again. We had
been watching her work to find just the right piece ever since. We saw "Sarnicha"
and "Baby Raghi" at toy fair in 2005 and just had to have her. She was a
masterpiece and reasonably priced. Rotraut who is extremely modest and
fair had adjusted her pricing to reflect the weakness of teh US dollar
last year. Rotraut has designed a stunning double piece for our 2006
show not shown here yet (will be in our new show catalogue) and will
have other surprises! Make sure to get on our mailing list for her work
if you are interested in obtaining one of these museum quality works of
arts. Email kmalone@dollery.com
your address and number. You will receive a free copy of last years show
catalogue, our new Spring flyer and our new 2006 24 page doll show
catalogue in August highlighting this year's October show. Rotraut will
attend once again!
Currently available is Naema and Baby
Raghi - inquire on Angel. Also - new double piece available for show in
October and others coming for October. You may also inquire on Rotraut's
adorable individual babies. If you see a piece you love that has been
sold in some cases a similar piece may be custom ordered but keep in
mind each is a very unique one of a kind and most have antique fabrics.
