Katiina From Finland in the 2005 Annette Himstedt Collection

Katiina is one of the most popular dolls from the collection this year--possibly because she is the only fair skinned blonde doll in the collection. Also, Katiina is popular because she has a beautiful open mouth with detailed modeled teeth.

Katiina represents Finland. She is done in an edition of 377 dolls, and her suggested retail price is $849. She is vinyl, 37 5/6" tall. "At the outermost fringes of the continent, in the north calotte, the cap of Europe, as people say, live the Sami people, colloquially also called "Lapps." That is where Katiina lives, teh cheerful little Sami girl from Finland." Katiina is totally sold out from Annette Himstedt dolls and hard to find from a dealer.
