      Sorry their faces are not clear enough to tell. What are theor bodies made of ?
    2. Manikin Manikin, 11 years ago
      oops their bodies (excuse typo)

      I just took some closeups just to show the detail. Thanks for your interest. I am very curious. Their bodies seem to some sort of material but very dense. They can stand up by themselves. I will load up the pics and send them in a few minutes.

      Genovese is the name of the doll, but as I said RAVCA is made in France
