Vintage Dol-Toi / Figertoi dollhouse dolls - black - set of 3 - 1:16 scale

Here is a rare set of black dollhouse dolls, made by Dol-Toi under their
Figertoi brand (from the "My Friends.... " series).

Handmade in the late 1960s/early 1970s, these dolls seem almost new. They have
either been looked after well or had some expert restoration.

The arms are posable, but the body and legs are not. The heads are plastic,
the arms and legs are wire wrapped in thread (similar to Caco dolls of the
1950s). The shoes are metal and rather long and narrow - it does help making
them stand upright.

Dad is dressed in a homespun dark-brown suit with a dapper light-brown vest,
which is adorned with 2 sparkly buttons. Mom wears a grey top and a lovely pink
flowery skirt, fastened with a lovely white bow at the back. The little girl
wears a blue flowery skirt and yellow top - and the most wonderful light blue
'shoes'. All are waiting and ready to find a new home.

The scale is 1:16 or 3/4 - please bear this in mind.

The adults are approximately 3.5" / 9 cm high. The little girl is approx 2.2"
/ 5.5 cm high

This really is a very special set.

Dol-Toi was an English company based in Stamford and active from the 1940s to
the late 1970s..
