15 1/2″ Porcelain Little Sweetheart” by Linda Mason from her Sugar & Spice Collection.
Paula Mahoney, Program Director at The Georgetown Collection provided the following story for the Little Sweetheart: ” Precious in her delicately embroidered pink dress, Little Sweetheart is truly “Sugar and Spice” and much more than nice! She’s a perfect little lady too…her Mommy’s pride and joy. Today she’s made Mommy a special card to say “I love you,” and now the moment to present her surprise is here. It’s no wonder her parents call her Little Sweetheart.
Little Sweetheart is from the “Suger and Spice” collection by nationally distinished doll artist, Linda Mason. Twice the recipient of the coveted Dolls”Award of Excellence,” Linda Mason has gained widespread acclaim for the exquisitely lifelike characteristics of her dolls. Each of the charming dolls in her “Sugar and Spice” collection has been inspired by the classic nursery rhyme and, like Little Sweetheart, each is irresistible!
In keeping with her name, Little Sweetheart proudly wears the golden heart locket given to her by her parents. In her pink bonnet is trimmed in lacey ruffles and satin ribbon…a “picture perfect” frame for her glossy golden hair., softly fringed bangs enhance her big blue eyes, which seem so anxious to please.
Carefully sculpted of fine bisque porcelain, Little Sweetheart has been hand-painted with loving care. In traditions of the most prized heirloom-quality dolls, she is destined to become a treasured family favorite passed lovingly from one generation to the next.”
I purchased the doll in 1991 from Georgetown Dolls.
