This lovely Native American doll, named "Blue Bird," was created about 15 years ago when a 1970's Madame Alexander 8" doll was redressed in the homemade Native American outfit you see her wearing today. She is unique- you will not find another Madame Alexander doll like this one! The doll and her 4-piece outfit are in great condition, esp. for their age.

The dress neckline has beading strands that hang to below the waist. The high boots also have the beading strands. All strands are complete. The dress is also trimmed with brown suede fringe at the skirt's hem, the sleeve ends, and the neckline. The fringe is also complete. Native American or southwestern style ribbons trim the hem and sleeves and the same ribbon is the base of the headdress. The headdress slips on the doll's head.
