GROOM

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get a 16 to 18 inch porcelain doll which is a groom with a top hat, shirt, waistcoat, cravate, trousers, shoes.  Preferably in navy?  Any response would be great!   ;)

    Can someone please advise me where I would get a doll like this? Someone is bound to have seen it in a shop or on a website, although I have tried these places I have had no luck! :(

    I found this:

    At the bottom it says 'We also offer to produce the best quality dolls to match your desired theme or inspiration. For more information and a friendly chat, please email us.'

    Hope this helps.

    Munkee I am just after receiving an e-mail from them. They reckon it shouldn't be a problem making the outfit but getting a male porcelain doll that looks like an adult and 16 to 18 inches tall will be the problem! :-*

    Thanks for all the responses but at the moment, http://www.elizabethannedolls.co.uk/range.htm[url][/url], is looking promising but I am still open to suggestions, in case they do not come up with the goods! ;)
