Celestial Music

Description

The Celestial Musician
R. John Wright – Hummel Collection

The Celestial Musician is made entirely of the finest all-wool felt. Fully jointed with the RJW ball & socket system with internal wood mechanism, the lovely angel child stands approximately 12″ tall. This is the first RJW Hummel to feature the distinctive lowered eye lids. The molded felt head has delicately hand painted features, and a wig of the finest mohair. The expressive hands have individually-sewn fingers and sculptural details.

The Celestial Musician comes costumed in a classic all-felt gown with metallic star motif. The angel wings are beautifully sculpted and molded out of felt and delicately hand painted. The entire costume has been artistically shaded in subtle hues to evoke the original Hummel coloring perfectly. The little musician holds a custom-made violin and bow handcrafted out of wood at the R. John Wright Workshop. A satchel made of all-wool felt hangs on a strap from one shoulder. Every detail has been meticulously researched to capture the essence and emotion of the original Hummel® design. Each doll includes a felt-covered wooden stand with a metal rod which inserts into a leg for easy display.

The Celestial Musician is produced at the R. John Wright workshop in Bennington, Vermont in a limited edition of only 100 pieces worldwide. Each will come inside a deluxe presentation box with a signed and numbered certificate of authenticity and the forms for owner registration.
