Zinnia by world-renowned doll artist, Jan Mclean, from the Flowers of the Heart series, is a treasure trove of craftsmanship and artistic expression. Zany Zinnia, with her vibrant curly crimson hair, piercing emerald glass eyes, and perfectly blushed complexion, stands as a testament to the exquisite artistry involved in the creation of Jane Mclean's jointed porcelain dolls. Each element, from the antique-style tricycle that accompanies her to the signature of the artist on her porcelain head, body, and limbs, adds layers of value and uniqueness. Zinnia is a must-have for avid doll collectors!

Her stunning, hand-painted features and embroidered clothes take hundreds of hours of exacting work to produce. The 1990s era in which she was handcrafted in New Zealand was a time of flourishing creativity for doll makers, and Jan McLean was at the forefront, pushing the boundaries of doll design. Standing at 18 inches, Zinnia is a representation of the teenage spirit, full of zest and personality. Her attire, a chic black bodysuit with a striped overskirt trimmed with netting, along with her bold striped stockings and handcrafted genuine leather boots, reflects a unique and whimsical style.

The felt hat, playfully adorned with fruit on its upturned brim, adds a final touch of whimsy to her ensemble. She is ready for autumn in her festive attire! As #130 in a limited edition of 500, Zinnia holds a special place in the series, her rarity underscored by the limited number of counterparts.

Excellent, preowned condition with no signs of cosmetic damage to her porcelain or ensemble. No foul odors or holes either. She also includes a signed CoA. For those who cherish the elegance and charm of rare artist dolls, Zinnia is an opportunity to own a slice of Jan McLean's celebrated legacy. Zinnia truly embodies the meticulous attention to detail and passion that Jan Mclean has become celebrated for in the international dollmaking community.
