Vintage Pink Kewpie Doll Bag Charm Antique I have sewn it onto

I have sewn it onto a black felt background and added an additional fish and small sterling silver branch pin

Morsels of red vintage velvet have been transformed into a set of four exquisite handmade brooches

but materials made using the same formula were eventually sold under other trade names in the US and around the world

replaced a couple of missing stones but the result is a piece that stands out from the crowd

Vintage Pink Kewpie Doll Bag Charm Antique I have sewn it ontoA bag charm made from a vintage small pink celluloid kewpie doll. Kewpie is a brand of dolls and figurines that were conceived as comic strip characters by American cartoonist Rose O'Neill. She described them as 'a sort of little fairy whose one idea is to teach people to be merry and kind at the same time'. Lovely!
