Many Stars, Native American porcelain retired doll, Linda Mason COA IB

Description

Many Stars, a beautiful Native American Collectible retired Limited Edition Doll was created by award-winning artist Linda Mason for Georgetown Collection as part of the America Diary Doll Collection.
On the night she was born, the moon was new.
The sky was filled with a thousand brilliantfires.
So the child was named ManyStars.
Now she has grown into a beautifulgirl, wise beyond her years…with eyes a quiet and deep as the midnightsky.
Many Stars is also a collector’s dream, dressed in traditional: buckskin dress richly decorated with elaboratebead work. She has thick, shiny black braided hair bound in leather-like strips and beaded adornment with feathers.  She stands 15 1/2" in her stand and is complete all the way from the traditional soft beaded leather-like dress, leggings and moccasins to the clay water pot she carries and her own biographical story book about her life as a young girl living on the Great Plains.
Many Stars' people always followed the buffalo.  But when she was 7 years old, late snows came instead of the spring.  The buffalo did not come.  Our people cold not find them.  And so it was the Our People spent the summer on the trail.  We were always on the move, searching for buffalo.  Her story continue with her brother Quick Fox, her
mother
, her father, her horse and the story telling of her People.
Linda Mason and Georgetown Collection work together to ensure the highest standards of craftsmanship.
This retired doll is handcrafted of fine bisque porcelain with cloth body, carefully hand painted, hand assembled and issued in an edition limited to 100 firing days serial number #SM 8805. She comes artist signed and hand-numbered with her certificate of authenticity.  All numbers match.
