Dolores Jacobs Original Handmade Folk Art Doll Pair Native American inspired set

A rare, museum-quality pair of handcrafted dolls by artist Dolores Jacobs, known for her detailed needle-sculpted faces, hand-painted expressions, and antique fabric embellishments. Each doll is completely one-of-a-kind, meticulously dressed in hand-cut suede-style clothing with authentic fringe and carefully braided yarn hair. Their serene expressions and symbolic accessories — a harvest basket and handcrafted bundle — reflect Jacobs’ characteristic storytelling through textile artistry. Her work often blurs the line between sculpture and dollmaking, making these pieces highly sought after among collectors of American folk and heritage-inspired art.
