Well my long wait is over (thanks to delays in customs!) and my lovely 13"girl Talarah has arrived. I custom ordered her from Maryna Skubenko of Wee Lucky Charms after seeing this porcelain sculpt Angel Eyes on ebay earlier this year. I am super delighted with the green eyes and freckles I also ordered plus the lovely dark wig . The box is strong, well packed. Box opening - Talarah by Dina, on Flickr Talarah well encased in a timber box and wig in a lovely hearts tin as a special treat. Box opening - Talarah by Dina, on Flickr With super lining and padding!! She was snug and well protected .. yay Box opening - Talarah by Dina, on Flickr Out she pops! Posing so easily Box opening - Talarah by Dina, on Flickr And here she is Talarah meaning fresh rain in local Aboriginal, she certainly lives up to that meaning. Her posability is awesome and I really like the discreet sueding of her joints with sculpy I guess. She is very tightly strung so holds extremely well and the pins are very discreet. Box opening - Talarah by Dina, on Flickr I cant wait to try on what fits her .. for starters the Popovy wigs do perfectly! Decisions .. decisions .. Talarah - wig testing 1 by Dina, on Flickr Talarah - wig testing 2 by Dina, on Flickr Talarah - wig testing 3 by Dina, on Flickr And some clothes, but today I settled on being a butterfly to welcome her into our home  Talarah - first day 1 by Dina, on Flickr

Your new girl is beautiful! I like the light blonde wig best...it matches her skin tone. Love the photo where she's coming out of her box.

My porcelain doll is also 13" ..do you know of any clothes that fit this size of doll?

Hi uamuseme
There is no specific size for dolls of the same height. For example, my new Talarah doesnt fit any of my other 13" doll clothes at all really, she fits the 15" doll clothes better. My two 15" dolls dont fit the same clothes either, my Popovy Sisters is super slender and therefore does fit Talarah.
Its a case of try a fitted top and bottom from a few similar size dolls and see what works! It was easier to make my own and I cant sew at all so there are some limitations there lol, I also bought a few clothes on ebay so I had a bit of an assortment, they were trial and error so dont spend too much!
regards Dina

Wow! I feel just looking at those photos are spoilers as my own angel is currently in the post from Maryna to me too - maybe they are sisters who were made together!! She had such a beautiful face

Thanks for your response Dina! That makes sense! ..and, my doll is actually a fuller body type so I doubt if there are any clothes out there that would fit her, 13" or otherwise. I guess it's just as well then that she shines as a beautiful nude! Enjoy your lovely Talarah!
