Sir William Arnold
Sir William Arnold is a hand-carved and hand-painted recreation inspired by Queen Victoria’s imaginary series of dolls, although perhaps Victoria based them on real people she observed at Kensington palace or during one of her visits to the theatre.
“Sir William Arnold is a unique figure. He is a comical-looking old gentleman, arrayed in green trousers, and a long fawn-colored overcoat, with a wide collar at the neck, opening to show a blue waistcoat. ”
-Frances Low
Sir William Arnold is a creation by Queen Victoria’s governess, Baroness Louise Lehzen.
He measures 6.5” inches tall, is fully jointed and is costumed in olive cotton trousers, a fawn-colored 100% tropical wool, an antique plaid vest, and a cravat made of antique voile.
Sir William Arnold is signed and made in a limited edition of 50. Since each doll is hand painted, there will be small variations in each doll.
Each doll is signed by Charles Carver, the artist, and comes in its own excelsior-filled decorated box with a laser engraved certificate of authenticity.
If you purchase the pair of Mr. and Mrs. Arnold, the price is $1300 for the pair. You must enter the code PAIR at time of checkout for the discount to be applied.
