Welcome to my America's Dolls Page. Enjoy!

Rio, Rio
Rio Lady
Origin: Rio De Janeiro, Brazil 1997

 
 
This doll is from Brazil in South America. She does appear relatively pale compared with the typical brazilian skin colour. My friend Marie-Alix thinks that this is a brazilian european doll representative of the central european cultures that colonised areas of Brazil during the last century.
 
My mum's friend, who worked in the 1980's and 1990's across the many provinces of Brazil during her career and who is now retired in Ireland, brought me this little treasure.
