Portland, Maine - Bird & Petal is a line of high quality urethane resin 12″ fashion ball-jointed dolls designed and produced by doll artist R. Leigh Slaughter. These dolls are bridging the gap between 16″ Fashion BJD and 12″ vinyl dolls, bringing the pleasure of the realistically sculpted BJD experience to 1/6th scale!
“These dolls are made for 12” doll enthusiasts who are looking for an alternative to the vinyl doll scene,” said Slaughter. “I remember the uncertainty of switching over to 16” BJD and wishing there was a high quality, beautifully sculpted BJD in ⅙ scale. I think these dolls will provide that to today's collectors.”
Bird and Petal (birdandpetal.com) dolls are produced in the US by the artist in Portland, Maine, with a
commitment to keeping production in the US and all of the accessories and packaging made domestically or locally.
