Sara – A Deruta Renaissance Pincushion Doll

This pincushion doll has been designed as a special token of love for my dearest Sara, daughter of Simona Bussiglieri, the designer of Mani di Donna. Simona and I share a long lasting amazing friendship and we have been designing and collaborating for several beautiful projects, including many for charity! I saw Sara when she was a little darling girl and now she is turning onto a charming woman! This pincushion doll is as shining and bright as my wonderful friend’s daughter!

The doll is available from Half Doll Heaven under the name of Lady Macbeth.

A small purse, decorated with a matching Deruta fuseruola bead and a matching Deruta pin, accessorize the doll. These majolica bead and pin are available from Giulia Punti Antichi.
