The Little Mermaid
"She was a strange child, quiet and thoughtful; and while her sisters would be delighted with the wonderful things which they obtained from the wrecks of vessels, she cared for nothing but her pretty red flowers, like the sun,...“
Our delightful little princess of the sea! Her softly painted expression of curiosity is hand painted in light washes of colour. Her torso, arms and head are carved from solid maple with movable ball and spring joints. Her custom, synthetic mohair wig of red can be combed and styled. The Little Mermaid's tail was sculpted by one of our artists to hold the torso of her wooden upper body. The original was then cast in resin, affixed to the body and hand painted in shimmering colour.

"For anyone looking to broaden their existing collection - or starting to collect- I believe wood will continue to have a special place.... It may not be large , but it is an extension of the woodcarver's art. Xenis' work in this field is especially worth collecting ..."
