New Baby Doll So Real
Updated : Jan 23, 2009
The below picture is actually a doll! I know it's very freaky. "Reborns" are incredibly life-like babydolls which sell for up to €3000.
Reborn "artists" or "rebirthers" make the dolls, which is apparently quite a complex process, and distribute them worldwide. Rachel Tams (22) is one of these artists and has made more than 500 dolls since starting her business four years ago. She says while most of her customers are doll collectors, she did have one woman, whose baby girl died at 3 months, purchase a doll which was modelled on a photo of her baby. The woman then kept the doll in her daughter's cot.
VeryHappyPig has two words to say...... freaky and wrong!
