Large Handmade Tilda Style Christmas Pixy Elf Doll 77cm Red Gingham

A charming large handmade Christmas pixy / elf doll in a Tilda-style Scandinavian folk design.

Measuring approximately 77 cm tall, the doll has a long pointed red hat, simple stitched facial features and long soft fabric limbs.

She is dressed in a lovely layered red and white outfit comprising a red gingham dress with striped patch pockets, striped bloomers with gathered ties, a hand-knitted red cardigan with six white buttons, and red ribbon ties at the ankles.

The doll appears to have been homemade, likely from or inspired by a Tilda-style sewing pattern rather than being a commercially manufactured Tilda doll.

Her long flexible limbs allow her to sit naturally, making her a lovely decorative piece for a chair, shelf, bench or Christmas display.
