My name is Maria and in this video I introduce you to my first and latest doll and share why I am fascinated by everything about DOLLS!
"Dolls have had many uses in history, varying from images with alleged magical properties to be worshiped, charms against evil etc. In japan they have since ancient times been regarded as representing the spirits of venerable ancestors, and in the 18th Century they were also travelling fashion exhibits. These dolls were not toys in any sense. "
