Description

This listing features Matthew, an adorable vintage porcelain sailor baby doll designed by celebrated artist Yolanda Bello for Ashton-Drake Galleries.

Matthew is part of Yolanda Bello’s beloved Picture-Perfect Babies collection and is commonly identified as the second doll in the series. Vintage listings describe him as a charming sailor boy with blonde hair, blue eyes, and a classic sailor outfit; original editions were often supplied with extra accessories such as a blanket, pillow, paperwork, or a Certificate of Authenticity.etsy+1

Measuring approximately 9 inches tall, Matthew has a finely crafted porcelain head, hands, and legs, paired with a soft cloth body. His bright blue eyes, gentle baby expression, and nautical outfit make him a lovely display piece for collectors of Yolanda Bello dolls, Ashton-Drake collectibles, porcelain babies, or sailor-themed nursery décor.

Matthew has enjoyed a careful visit to our Doll Spa. His porcelain and cloth body were cleaned, the head mount was repaired, and his removable clothing was gently cleaned and lightly restored. He now presents beautifully and is ready for an adult collector’s display.
