A
doll
is a
model
typically of a
human
or
humanoid
character, often used as a
toy
for children. Dolls have also been used in traditional religious rituals throughout the world. Traditional dolls made of materials such as clay and wood are found in the Americas, Asia, Africa and Europe. The earliest documented dolls go back to the ancient civilizations of
Egypt
,
Greece
, and
Rome
. They have been made as crude, rudimentary playthings as well as elaborate
art
. Modern doll manufacturing has its roots in Germany, from the 15th century. With
industrialization
and new materials such as
porcelain
and
plastic
, dolls were increasingly mass-produced. During the 20th century, dolls became increasingly popular as
collectibles
.
History, types and materials
[
edit

Early history and traditional dolls
[
edit
]
The earliest dolls were made from available materials such as
clay
, stone,
wood
,
bone
,
ivory
,
leather
, or
wax
.
Archaeological
evidence places dolls as the foremost candidate for the oldest known
toy
. Wooden
paddle dolls
have been found in
Egyptian
tombs dating to as early as the 21st century BC.
[2]
Dolls with movable limbs and removable clothing date back to at least 200 BC. Archaeologists have discovered Greek dolls made of clay and articulated at the hips and shoulders.
[2]
[3]
Rag dolls and stuffed animals were probably also popular, but no known examples of these have survived to the present day.
[3]
Stories from ancient Greece around 100 AD show that dolls were used by little girls as playthings.
[2]
Greeks called a doll κ?ρη, literally meaning "little girl", and a wax-doll was called δ?γυνον, δαγ?? and πλαγγ?ν. Often dolls had movable limbs and were called νευρ?σπαστα, they were worked by strings or wires.
[4]
In
ancient Rome
, dolls were made of clay, wood or ivory. Dolls have been found in the graves of Roman children. Like children today, the younger members of Roman civilization would have dressed their dolls according to the latest fashions. In Greece and Rome, it was customary for boys to dedicate their toys to the gods when they reached puberty and for girls to dedicate their toys to the goddesses when they married.
[2]
[3]
At marriage the Greek girls dedicated their dolls to
Artemis
and the Roman girls to
Venus
, but if they died before marriage their dolls were buried with them.
[4]
Rag dolls
are traditionally home-made from spare scraps of
cloth
material. Roman rag dolls have been found dating back to 300 BC.
[5]
Traditional dolls are sometimes used as children's playthings, but they may also have spiritual, magical and ritual value. There is no defined line between spiritual dolls and toys. In some cultures dolls that had been used in rituals were given to children. They were also used in children's education and as carriers of cultural heritage. In other cultures dolls were considered too laden with magical powers to allow children to play with them.
[6]
African dolls
are used to teach and entertain; they are supernatural intermediaries, and they are manipulated for ritual purposes. Their shape and costume vary according to region and custom. Dolls are frequently handed down from mother to daughter.
Akuaba
are wooden ritual
fertility
dolls from
Ghana
and nearby areas. The best known
akuaba
are those of the
Ashanti people
, whose
akuaba
have large, disc-like heads. Other tribes in the region have their own distinctive style of
akuaba
.
There is a rich history of
Japanese dolls
dating back to the
Dog?
figures (8000?200 BCE). and
Haniwa
funerary figures (300?600 AD). By the eleventh century, dolls were used as playthings as well as for protection and in religious ceremonies. During
Hinamatsuri
, the doll festival, hina dolls
(
雛人形
,
hina-ningy?
)
are displayed. These are made of straw and wood, painted, and dressed in elaborate, many-layered textiles.
Daruma dolls
are spherical dolls with red bodies and white faces without pupils. They represent
Bodhidharma
, the East Indian who founded
Zen
, and are used as good luck charms. Wooden
Kokeshi
dolls have no arms or legs, but a large head and cylindrical body, representing little girls.
The use of an
effigy
to perform a spell on someone is documented in African, Native American, and European cultures. Examples of such
magical
devices include the European
poppet
and the
nkisi
or
bocio
of West and Central Africa. In European
folk
magic and
witchcraft
, poppet dolls are used to represent a person for casting spells on that person. The intention is that whatever actions are performed upon the effigy will be transferred to the subject through
sympathetic magic
. The practice of sticking pins in
voodoo dolls
have been associated with African-American
Hoodoo
folk magic. Voodoo dolls are not a feature of
Haitian Vodou
religion, but have been portrayed as such in popular culture, and stereotypical voodoo dolls are sold to tourists in Haiti. Likely the voodoo doll concept in popular culture is influenced by the European poppet.
[7]
A
kitchen witch
is a poppet originating in Northern Europe. It resembles a stereotypical
witch
or
crone
and is displayed in residential kitchens as a means to provide good luck
[8]
and ward off bad spirits.
[9]
Hopi Kachina dolls
are effigies made of cottonwood that embody the characteristics of the ceremonial
Kachina
, the masked spirits of the
Hopi
Native American tribe. Kachina dolls are objects meant to be treasured and studied in order to learn the characteristics of each Kachina.
Inuit dolls
are made out of
soapstone
and
bone
, materials common to the
Inuit
. Many are clothed with animal
fur
or skin. Their clothing articulates the traditional style of dress necessary to survive cold winters, wind, and snow. The tea dolls of the
Innu people
were filled with tea for young girls to carry on long journeys.
Apple dolls
are traditional North American dolls with a head made from dried apples. In
Inca mythology
,
Sara Mama
was the goddess of
grain
. She was associated with
maize
that grew in multiples or was similarly strange. These strange plants were sometimes dressed as dolls of Sara Mama.
Corn husk dolls
are traditional
Native American
dolls made out of the dried leaves or
husk
of a
corncob
.
[10]
Traditionally, they do not have a face. The making of corn husk dolls was adopted by early European settlers in the United States.
[11]
Early settlers also made rag dolls and carved wooden dolls, called
Pennywoods
.
[12]
La
ultima muneca
, or "the last doll", is a tradition of the
Quinceanera
, the celebration of a girl's fifteenth birthday in parts of
Latin America
. During this ritual the
quinceanera
relinquishes a doll from her childhood to signify that she is no longer in need of such a toy.
[13]
In the United States, dollmaking became an industry in the 1860s, after the Civil War.
[14]
Matryoshka dolls
are traditional Russian dolls, consisting of a set of hollow wooden figures that open up and nest inside each other. They typically portray traditional peasants and the first set was carved and painted in 1890.
[15]
In Germany, clay dolls have been documented as far back as the 13th century, and wooden doll making from the 15th century.
[16]
Beginning about the 15th century, increasingly elaborate dolls were made for
Nativity scene
displays, chiefly in Italy.
[17]
Dolls with detailed, fashionable clothes were sold in France in the 16th century, though their bodies were often crudely constructed.
[18]
The German and Dutch
peg wooden dolls
were cheap and simply made and were popular toys for poorer children in Europe from the 16th century.
[19]
Wood continued to be the dominant material for dolls in Europe until the 19th century.
[20]
Through the 18th and 19th centuries, wood was increasingly combined with other materials, such as leather, wax and porcelain and the bodies made more articulate.
[20]
It is unknown when dolls' glass eyes first appeared, but brown was the dominant eye color for dolls up until the
Victorian era
when blue eyes became more popular, inspired by
Queen Victoria
.
[21]
Dolls,
puppets
and
masks
allow ordinary people to state what is impossible in the real situation;
[22]
In Iran for example during
Qajar era
, people criticised the politics and social conditions of Ahmad-Shah's reign via puppetry without any fear of punishment.
[23]
According to the Islamic rules, the act of dancing in public especially for women, is a taboo. But dolls or puppets have free and independent identities and are able to do what is not feasible for the real person.
Layli
is a hinged dancing doll, which is popular among the
Lur people
of
Iran
.
[24]
[25]
The name Layli is originated from the
Middle East
folklore and love story,
Layla and Majnun
. Layli is the symbol of the beloved who is spiritually beautiful.
[26]
Layli also represents and maintains a cultural tradition, which is gradually vanishing in urban life.
Industrial era
[
edit
]
During the 19th century, dolls' heads were often made of
porcelain
and combined with a body of leather, cloth, wood, or
composite materials
, such as
papier-mache
or
composition
, a mix of pulp, sawdust, glue and similar materials.
[27]
[28]
With the advent of
polymer
and
plastic
materials in the 20th century, doll making largely shifted to these materials. The low cost, ease of manufacture, and durability of plastic materials meant new types of dolls could be mass-produced at a lower price. The earliest materials were
rubber
and
celluloid
. From the mid-20th century, soft
vinyl
became the dominant material, in particular for children's dolls.
[29]
[30]
Beginning in the 20th century, both porcelain and plastic dolls are made directly for the adult collectors market.
Synthetic resins
such as
polyurethane
resemble porcelain in texture and are used for collectible dolls.
Colloquially the terms
porcelain doll
,
bisque doll
and
china doll
are sometimes used interchangeably. But collectors make a distinction between
china dolls
, made of glazed
porcelain
, and
bisque dolls
, made of unglazed bisque or
biscuit porcelain
. A typical antique china doll has a white
glazed
porcelain head with painted molded hair and a body made of
cloth
or
leather
. The name comes from
china
being used to refer to the material porcelain. They were
mass-produced
in
Germany
, peaking in popularity between 1840 and 1890 and selling in the millions.
[31]
[32]
[33]
Parian dolls
were also made in Germany, from around 1860 to 1880. They are made of white porcelain similar to china dolls but the head is not dipped in
glaze
and has a matte finish.
[34]
Bisque dolls
are characterized by their realistic, skin-like
matte
finish. They had their peak of popularity between 1860 and 1900 with French and German dolls. Antique German and French bisque dolls from the 19th century were often made as children's playthings, but contemporary bisque dolls are predominantly made directly for the collectors market.
[27]
[33]
[35]
Realistic, lifelike
wax
dolls were popular in
Victorian England
.
[36]
Up through the middle of the 19th century, European dolls were predominantly made to represent grown-ups. Childlike dolls and the later ubiquitous baby doll did not appear until around 1850.
[33]
[37]
But, by the late 19th century, baby and childlike dolls had overtaken the market.
[33]
By about 1920, baby dolls typically were made of composition with a cloth body. The hair, eyes, and mouth were painted. A voice box was sewn into the body that cried ma-ma when the doll was tilted, giving them the name Mama dolls. During 1923, 80% of all dolls sold to children in the United States were Mama dolls.
[38]

Paper dolls
are cut out of paper, with separate clothes that are usually held onto the dolls by folding tabs. They often reflect contemporary styles, and 19th century
ballerina
paper dolls were among the earliest
celebrity dolls
. The 1930s
Shirley Temple
doll sold millions and was one of the most successful celebrity dolls. Small celluloid
Kewpie dolls
, based on illustrations by
Rose O'Neill
, were popular in the early 20th century.
Madame Alexander
created the first collectible doll based on a licensed character ?
Scarlett O'Hara
from
Gone with the Wind
.
[39]
Contemporary
dollhouses
have their roots in European
baby house
display cases from the 17th century. Early dollhouses were all handmade, but, following the
Industrial Revolution
and
World War II
, they were increasingly mass-produced and became more affordable. Children's dollhouses during the 20th century have been made of
tin litho
, plastic, and wood. Contemporary houses for adult collectors are typically made of wood.
The earliest modern
stuffed toys
were made in 1880. They differ from earlier
rag dolls
in that they are made of plush fur-like fabric and commonly portray animals rather than humans.
[40]
Teddy bears
first appeared in 1902?1903.
[40]
[41]
Black dolls
have been designed to resemble dark-skinned persons varying from stereotypical to more accurate portrayals.
Rag dolls
made by American
slaves
served as playthings for slave children.
Golliwogg
was a children's book rag doll character in the late 19th century that was widely reproduced as a toy. The doll has very black skin, eyes rimmed in white, clown lips, and frizzy hair, and has been described as an
anti-black caricature
.
[42]
Early mass-produced black dolls were typically dark versions of their white counterparts. The earliest American black dolls with realistic African facial features were made in the 1960s.
Fashion dolls
are primarily designed to be dressed to reflect
fashion
trends and are usually modeled after teen girls or adult women. The earliest fashion dolls were French
bisque dolls
from the mid-19th century. Contemporary fashion dolls are typically made of
vinyl
.
Barbie
, from the American toy company
Mattel
, dominated the market from her inception in 1959.
[43]
Bratz
was the first doll to challenge Barbie's dominance, reaching forty percent of the market in 2006.
[44]
Plastic
action figures
, often representing
superheroes
, are primarily marketed to boys.
[45]
Fashion dolls and action figures are often part of a
media franchise
that may include films, TV, video games and other related merchandise.
Bobblehead
dolls are collectible plastic dolls with heads connected to the body by a spring or hook
[46]
in such a way that the head bobbles. They often portray baseball players or other athletes.
Modern era
[
edit
]
With the introduction of computers and the Internet, virtual and online dolls appeared. These are often similar to traditional
paper dolls
and enable users to design virtual dolls and
drag and drop
clothes onto dolls or images of actual people to play dress up. These include
KiSS
,
Stardoll
and
Dollz
.
Also with the advent of the Internet, collectible dolls are customized and sold or displayed online.
Reborn dolls
are vinyl dolls that have been customized to resemble a human baby with as much
realism
as possible. They are often sold online through sites such as
eBay
.
[47]
[48]
Asian
ball-jointed dolls
(BJDs) are
cast
in
polyurethane
synthetic resin
in a style that has been described as both realistic and influenced by
anime
.
[49]
[50]
[51]
Asian BJDs and
Asian fashion dolls
such as
Pullip
and
Blythe
are often customized and photographed. The photos are shared in online communities.
[52]
[53]
Uses, appearances and issues
[
edit
]
Since ancient times, dolls have played a central role in magic and religious rituals and have been used as representations of deities. Dolls have also traditionally been toys for children. Dolls are also collected by adults, for their nostalgic value, beauty, historical importance or financial value.
[54]
Antique dolls originally made as children's playthings have become collector's items. Nineteenth-century
bisque dolls
made by French manufacturers such as Bru and
Jumeau
may be worth almost $22,000 today.
[55]
Dolls have traditionally been made as crude, rudimentary playthings as well as with elaborate, artful design.
[56]
They have been created as
folk art
in cultures around the globe, and, in the 20th century,
art dolls
began to be seen as
high art
. Artist
Hans Bellmer
made
surrealistic
dolls that had interchangeable limbs in 1930s and 1940s
Germany
as opposition to the
Nazi
party's idolization of a perfect Aryan body.
[54]
East Village
artist
Greer Lankton
became famous in the 1980s for her theatrical window displays of drug addicted, anorexic and mutant dolls.
[57]
Lifelike or
anatomically correct dolls
are used by health professionals, medical schools and social workers to train doctors and nurses in various health procedures or investigate cases of all sexual abuse of children. Artists sometimes use jointed wooden mannequins in drawing the human figure. Many ordinary doll brands are also anatomically correct, although most types of dolls are degenitalized.
[58]
Egli-Figuren
are a type of doll that originated in Switzerland in 1964 for telling
Bible stories
.
[59]
In Western society, a gender difference in the selection of toys has been observed and studied.
Action figures
that represent traditional masculine traits are popular with boys, who are more likely to choose toys that have some link to
tools
,
transportation
,
garages
,
machines
and
military equipment
.
Dolls for girls
tend to represent feminine traits and come with such accessories as
clothing
, kitchen appliances,
utensils
,
furniture
and
jewelry
.
[60]
[61]
[62]
Pediophobia
is a fear of dolls or similar objects.
[63]
[64]
Psychologist
Ernst Jentsch
theorized that
uncanny
feelings arise when there is an intellectual uncertainty about whether an object is alive or not.
Sigmund Freud
further developed on these theories.
[65]
Japanese roboticist
Masahiro Mori
expanded on these theories to develop the
uncanny valley
hypothesis: if an object is obviously enough non-human, its human characteristics will stand out and be endearing; however, if that object reaches a certain threshold of human-like appearance, its non-human characteristics will stand out, and be disturbing.
[66]
Doll hospitals
[
edit
]
A doll hospital is a workshop that specializes in the
restoration
or repair of dolls.
[67]
Doll hospitals can be found in countries around the world.
[68]
One of the oldest doll hospitals was established in
Lisbon
, Portugal in 1830,
[68]
and another in
Melbourne
, reputedly the first such establishment in Australia, was founded in 1888.
[67]
There is a Doll Doctors Association in the United States.
[69]
Henri Launay, who has been repairing dolls at his shop in northeast Paris for 43 years, says he has restored over 30,000 dolls in the course of his career. Most of the clients are not children, but adults in their 50s and 60s.
[55]
Some doll brands, such as
American Girl
and
Madame Alexander
, also offer doll hospital services for their own dolls.
Dolls and children's tales
[
edit
]
Many books deal with dolls tales, including
Wilhelmina. The Adventures of a Dutch Doll
, by Nora Pitt-Taylor, pictured by Gladys Hall.
[70]
Rag dolls
have featured in a number of children's stories, such as the 19th century character
Golliwogg
in
The Adventures of Two Dutch Dolls and a Golliwogg
by Bertha Upton and Florence K. Upton
[71]
and
Raggedy Ann
in the books by
Johnny Gruelle
, first published in 1918.
The Lonely Doll
is a 1957 children's book by Canadian author
Dare Wright
. The story, told through text and photographs, is about a doll named Edith and two teddy bears.
