The face and hands are carved in box wood. The arms have a metallic armature.

The hair is made of satiny cotton with a chignon. It's decorated with pearl grey and pink ribbons and flowers realized by myself.

The dress, in pearl grey satin, has three linedflounces. The vest is embroidered by hand with silvered, black and écru threads. The collar is made of black satin with embroidery. The wrists are decorated with a Bayeux bobbin lace.

The pedestal is made of cut wood, painted in black and pearl grey ; It has some little feet. Underneath, it's covered with black felt. I gave a glossy surface and the finishing is aged.
