Dolls might be seen as toys, but in the right hands they can become enchanting art. Russian jeweler artist and designer Marina Bychkova, who lives in Canada, creates stunning one-of-a-kind ball-jointed porcelain dolls for adults.
Marina says that her calling for creating dolls became evident back when she was only 6. She couldn't stand how boring and mediocre the mass-produced dolls were, so Marine started making toys that suited her own ideas of beauty. Eventually, the training at the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design influenced her to commit to the doll making as a career. According to the creator, she named the brand after Paul Gallico’s short story called “Enchanted Doll”. Fiction reflects in most of her works, as Marina recreates such well-known characters as Cinderella and Little Red Riding Hood.
The dolls are meticulously made using high quality materials, such as porcelain, gold, silver, and even Swarovski crystals. They help to achieve uniqueness and sophisticated beauty. Depicting sensuality and delicacy, these dolls will enchant anyone who lays eyes on them.

I don't know why, but this makes me think of Gerda in the story 'The Ice Queen'!

That is the type of mask the doctors wore during the plague. I believe this must be a representation of her imminent death, and that of her unborn childs.

They even have the feet binding. It is something women did in China for beauty.

Although I find them creepy as hell, they are all stunningly beautiful too. The skill is unbelievable. The outfits and accessories are so beautiful, and I like the fact the artist has included nipples (and genitalia? It's too small for me to see properly), unlike regular dolls.

They are supposed to look sad, that's the beauty of them. And how this artist chooses to express herself is not something to be ridiculed, because these dolls, although they may not be for everybody, are gorgeous.
