I have mentioned before that I have a fascination with dolls that are odd and fantastic.
Anima ex Manus (animaXmanus) is a shop on Etsy that I stop by from time-to-time. The artist, Ionna, lives in Athens, Greece and her hand-crafted dolls are strange, sad, and beautiful. Ionna describes herself as "living in a parallel universe of grotesque, peculiar, whimsical creatures and anthropomorphic oddities." I'm sure we'd all feel right at home.
The shop only has a few dolls available at the moment, but there are prints of former pieces and some charming necklaces. Check these out. I'm particularly attracted to Brona.
