Story
The 1980s and 90s saw a massive resurgence in porcelain dolls as adults began collecting them not as toys, but as curated art pieces for the home.
Maker / Origin
Duck House Dolls was a significant player in the California-based collectible market, led by Vice President Mei Lien Chang.
Condition & Value
The doll appears to be in excellent, unused condition, still secured in its original packaging. While these dolls had high original retail prices, the secondary market is currently very saturated.
