This Sweet Thing started as a Porsha sculpt by Romie Strydom, I kept her name Porsha, but if you prefer a different name for her ID bracelet please let me know!

Porsha comes with a matching belly plate that sits on top of her body. The belly plate was also sculpted by Romie.



Porsha has mouth blown crystal glass Lauschaer eyes in "dark stormy blue"


I washed throughly, and painted with many layers of genesis heat set paints. I painted small details, and no little spot was forgotten. She has small veins on her wrists and ankles, and small blood vessels you can see all over her if you look closely - even on her eye lids, like a real baby! You can easily see her mottled skin tone!

Genesis paints will not fade or peel. ** All painting was on the outside of the doll, so there is no worry of bruising.



This baby doll is truly OOAK(one of a kind), I mix my own paint colors, so they are truly unique!

Her hair is soft angora kid blonde mohair from Slumberland Nursery. It is so very soft, and when wet and combed down it looks like it is painted on.




This reborn baby doll was made and stored in a 100% smoke free home.

All photos were taken without flash in natural light, and at different times of day. Some photos were taken in direct sunlight for a more dramatic effect.

I am not very good at photo taking so I tried to take as many pictures in different lighting as I could. A few were taken in the sunlight.

Reborn dolls should not be stored in direct sunlight!


PLEASE BE PATIENT WHILE THE PAGE LOADS!

I've taken lots of high resolution photos, so it might take a few minutes!

Porsha's hair was micro-rooted with a 43g forked rooting needle - one hair at a time. I used a very fine soft angora kid blonde mohair, and is sealed on the inside of her head, so you can carefully wash and style her hair. This can be styled straight or wavy...it is very easy to style. She has the cutest swirl crown on the top of her head!

She has barely there light brown hand painted eyebrows, and blonde eyelashes.

This is a collectible reborn doll intended for adults, not children under 12.
This doll is NOT over painted. There is no excessive blushing, etc. She looks just like a real 2 or 3 day old infant! She is newborn size. She fits nicely into newborn size clothing. Her body is stuffed a bit floppy for posing, but I can make her firmer.

I used Genesis heat set paints to make this beautiful reborn baby. Each layer was carefully applied and then heated to set. These paints will NOT fade or peel. Her toe nails, finger nails and lips have been painted and triple sealed.

Her nose has been opened and backed with felt.



Her toe nails and finger nails have been subtly detailed without looking artificial.



Porsha has mottled skin tone, and tiny blood vessels in all the right places! She also has light mottling all over her little body, and veins on her forehead, hands, and feet.



Please feel free to ask any questions!

This auction is for one reborn baby doll. The doll is a Limited edition Porsha sculpt, by Romie Strydom.


Her hair is fine angora kid mohair in blonde. You can spray it with a bit of water to style it. This hair is super fine. It was rooted one or two hairs at a time with a tiny rooting needle. It looks like natural hair growing out of her sculpt.

Porsha wears newborn size clothing. She wears stage 1 or 2 size diapers

Porsha is weighted to feel like a real baby. You have to support her head when you pick her up. She has a doe-suede body that is jointed at the arms. She is stuffed a bit floppy, so she feels like a real baby when you move her around!

Porsha has hand painted light brown eyebrows, and blonde eyelashes. Her eyes are a gorgeous blue, and arm made of crystal glass.

I took closeup photos so you can see the mottling and soft veining!

All blankets and toys shown in the photographs are props and are not included in the auction unless otherwise stated.

Please feel free to ask any questions! I will also take more photos on request! I am not too good at photography, but I can take more on request!
