Contemporary and unique, these handmade creations range from representational to abstract, from skillful realism to provocative surrealism--and they're made from every conceivable material, including beads, gourds, and polymer clay.

Dollmakers, crafters, collectors, and anyone who loves beautiful objects will love the amazing diversity showcased here.
