DESCRIPTION:
When my sister and I were little girls, we loved playing dolls. Our parents were very poor and to even get a doll was such a wonderful surprise. Our Aunt Marlene would always buy us something special because she knew our parents had no money. One Christmas, she purchased us a doll watch that was made of tin metal and had a black elastic band. The other day I was reminiscing with my sister about our dolly watches. After our wonderful reminiscing, I decided to do a doll search on eBay for these watches and was amazed at how much they cost now and most of the tin ones' had some rust on them. I didn't think that would be too good for the dolls wrist, so this is what I came up with.
Years ago, you could purchase these Art Deco watches for a couple of dollars and they are mostly used for re-purposing. I decided to make these watches for your antique or vintage dolls. These watches have elastic bands; each one with a different shape watch face. This particular watch #3 has an square shape watch head with a raised glass top. (Please note: these doll watches should not be given to children. The glass will break if they hit the ground, so I wouldn't recommend gifting them to a little girl unless she is older and understands the glass top). It is a Norbee and has white stainless steel around the watch itself. The numerals are white gold as are the hands on the watch. The band on this watch has a delicate pink satin stretch band. I hand stitched these bands twice for secure stretching. They will stretch significantly and you don't have to worry about it coming apart. I also stitched a delicate heart to each band which dangles off to the side of the watch head. On the underside, I hand stitched a delicate pink satin rosebud, which if turned over, looks like a precious bracelet. The watch head measures approximately 2" wide by 1/2" across. Some of these old watches are in really good condition and display beautifully on your dolls wrist. I am listing ten (10) of these today. Each one will be different.
I hope you enjoy them and I know they will look adorable on your dollies. I actually tried these on Thumbelina, Bobble Head Lucy, American Character Toodles and other dolls. They will fit a medium to large size doll. I would say 18" to 26" doll.
