Alexandra is a frequent guest and winner of various international dolls exhibitions. Her limited edition dolls are hand made from porcelain have height up to 60 cm. Gorgeous costumes are made from silk and decorated with natural fur, beads and subtle laces. All the details of the costumes from the last ribbon to the tiniest pearl on the dress are reproduced with amazing technical and artistic skill. Semi-precious and precious stones and antique knickknacks are often used as accessories. Each doll is the result of painstaking work and is absolutely unique. Hope you’ll like them!

Over hundreds of years the area has been desecrated to only one canal. This sole tributary is all that is left of the ancient Lake Xochimilico. Still, the strength of the Aztecs thrives in this remnant, this living alter of Mexico’s history.

On an island near the canals, an old legend tells a story that seems to mirror the survival and strength of the Mexican culture. The Island of Dolls, La Isla de las Munecas in Spanish, is known by many and respected by most.
