I hope no more Russian Silkes, although Ken WAS cute as a Cossack. And did like him as a "Sugar Daddy" - could have been another "camp" classic. Maybe I like Ken more than I thought?<br /><br />Glad I read the comment on the earrings. Since Gene # 1, I've been using gold plated sterling eye posts, to prevent the dreaded Green Ear. And never store dolls with the jewelry-EVER.<br /><br />I use a special non-tarnish silver eye-post for silver earrings (Fire Mountain- gotta love them!!!) Forgot the name of the metallic amalgam, but it's kind of a God-send for those who like silver over gold ( like moi).Steve C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12014938894700350737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-88303074129276403972011-08-11T15:17:51.532-04:002011-08-11T15:17:51.532-04:00My love affair with Silkstones was brief.

The earrings in the dolls ears were making them turn black or green and Mattel offered replacement earrings if your doll seemed ok, or you could return the doll for a replacement. Just thought I would mention it...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-72830838696087781562011-08-10T18:51:06.134-04:002011-08-10T18:51:06.134-04:00I wanted to buy this Silkstone when she came out.
...I wanted to buy this Silkstone when she came out.<br />I think she is so lovely.<br /><br />Several years ago, Doll Market had amazing deals. I got some Alex dolls and Cissys at very low prices.<br />They don't have these kinds of sales anymore.<br /><br />This is a great price for her on Ebay.<br /><br />XXXaquabluerosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08819994635925965004noreply@blogger.com
