Buttercup, Waldorf inspired Little Rowan Tree doll

Buttercup can't wait to go on adventures with you! Buttercup loves going on adventures and climbing trees. Of course, quite often she falls and hurts herself, and needs cuddles aplenty to help her feel better again. She is a little ray of chattering sunshine in your arms!

Special features: Buttercups are her favourite flowers, so she has a single yellow buttercup flower appliqued on her collar with embroidery detail on the flower. Buttercup wears a sewn on pleated romper suit with a pastel yellow top and a golden yellow body.

Materials: Buttercup is stuffed with Filges organic batting wool. Her little romper suit (sewn on) is made from beautifully soft cotton velour. Her face, hands, ears and feet are made from De Witte Engel doll skin interlock knit. Her hair is a crocheted DollyMo mohair cap. Her eyes and little buttercup flower are embroidered with Anchor embroidery thread.

Dimensions: 34cm height (approx)

Safety: UKCA tested - safe from birth.

Durability: Buttercup's body is fully lined with doll skin interlock knit for extra strength. All seams are double sewn with Coats Nylbond thread so they can stand up to active play.

Creative: Unique in personality and design details, Little Rowan Tree dolls inspire imaginative play.

Emotional: Little Rowan Tree dolls have simple, sweet faces and expressions to support children to explore their feelings freely as they play. Dolls of this kind are used in Waldorf pedagogy to support emotional and social development. These dolls can also provide positive emotional connections and experiences during times of change and transition, e.g. new sibling, starting school, moving.

Recommended age: safe from 0+, these soft dolls with non-removeable clothing minimise frustration in play for younger toddlers, making them a wonderful choice for a first doll.

Buttercup has a little fabric label sewn in the seam of her right leg with the Rowan Tree dolls logo on the front and the UKCA mark on the reverse.

Buttercup comes in a handmade presentation bag with a Rowan Tree doll stamp in the corner. This bag has a simple baby soft velcro closure. The hand dyed fabric the bags are made from comes from the lovely Anne at Bluespacequilts.

Care advice:

Ideally use spot washing for any mishaps! However Buttercup can also be handwashed with care if necessary.

Buttercup's hair may flatten a bit over time - the mohair cap can be gently brushed with a pet slicker to fluff it up again if this happens.

Buttercup is not waterproof -

please take care on any outdoor adventures!
