Vintage 1996 Antique Rose Barbie - FAO Schwarz Limited Edition (Mattel #15814)

Celebrate timeless beauty with this Antique Rose Barbie, a 1996 FAO Schwarz Limited Edition from Mattel. Barbie wears an ivory satin gown adorned with handcrafted ribbon and organza roses in blush, champagne, and pink tones, accented with crystal-style details. Her hair is styled in an elegant updo with matching floral accents. Doll appears never removed from the box and remains beautifully displayed. The box shows light age-related wear including scuffed corners, minor creasing, and taped seams. One Velcro tab is detached and adhered to the opposite side. It’s unclear whether the box was ever opened or simply reinforced over time. The plastic window is clear with light surface marks. Shoes are not visible through the packaging and may be tucked beneath the gown or missing. A lovely collector’s piece - the first doll in the FAO Schwarz Limited Edition Floral Signature Collection. Originally from a smoker’s home, now stored in a clean, smoke-free, pet-free environment.
