Metsaema Spirit Doll (adopted)
 (Mother of the Forest in Estonian mythology)​

 ​My spirit doll is for display rather than for play and symbolizes or embodies an activity, a spiritual moment, experience, the divine, etc. The spirit doll is an ancient being, familiar and beloved to many cultures around the world. By engaging in these ancestral crafts we weave a bridge back to our own great grandmothers, before she travels on to do her work with those who need her. 
​ 
Metsaema​ is made from variety of fabrics, including clay, bundled sticks, knitted wool, muslin, mohair, felt, fleece and silk. I sculpted her face to represent the tribal dolls from various countries, painted in layers and with sparkle.  She has a hook on her back for hanging.
Metsaema
measures 28cm in total.

​Metsaema Spirit Doll is £29.50
Please email Penny at: pennypaul@hotmail.co.uk if you would like to adopt this doll.

Postage prices all include 'signed for' tracked delivery:
​ UK: £5.50, (free U.K. postage if adopting more than one bear) 
​ Europe £11,   U.S.A. £16,   R.O.W. £15 I should be very grateful if overseas adopters would pay 'send money to friends and family overseas' to avoid the PayPal fees.
​
 These are collectors' items made using materials and traditional components that make them unsuitable as children's toys.
