Description

Up for sale is a nude OOAK Gene repaint by the one and only original repaint artist, Terri Norcia. She has named this girl Melody. This beautiful platinum has been styled by Terri as well. Terri is not only an artist, but also a beautician. This is a fabulous style and very elegant! Her eyes are an intense sky blue. Lashes are applied. Lips are a full deep red....so realistic even the tiny lines are highlighted. They just gleam. She has that wonderful look of porcelain. She has the twisty waist style of body. SPECIAL NOTE: There is some staining on her upper arms, and very slight staining on her back from her clothing. She was repainted by Terri in 2002. Original selling price over 0. I have given a significant discount due to slight staining. She will come with her COA signed by the artist. Don't miss this opportunity to acquire an original Terri Norica masterpiece! Terri retired in appox. 2002 from repainting. For those serious collectors, owning a Terri Norica creation is a must. Terri was the premier doll artist when this phenomenon took off. I was lucky enough to own 5 of her creations. All are up in store now except one...which just so happens to be the very last one she ever made. She is exquisite in her work. She is an artist by trade and has moved on to bigger art venues. While she blessed us with her repainting "magic", she changed the artist doll world. She has such a unique style all her own. No one has been able to come close. Yes, her prices are high, and very much earned. You will not be disappointed. She uses only the highest quality paints, which have been sealed for years of enjoyment. She will be shipped in a generic doll box. Auction is for nude doll only. Outfit and other items shown can be found in our auctions or in our store. She has been stored in a smoke-free home away from light, and is from my private collection. A special note to all buyers of our OOAK repaints. Due to the one of a kind nature, and the fact that each artist has her own special technique for various aspects of the creation, (such as hair, eyelashes, and in the case of re-roots and body switches, more or less mobility at the joints). Please ask all questions of concern before purchase. We try and describe in detail, but cannot always determine what a collector will find undesirable. For instance, one artist may have a tendency to re-root hair in more of a thick, somewhat clumpy manner. We may find this attractive for the style, yet another may find it undesirable. Pictures do not always show up every little artistic addition. It is our intent to neither deceive nor portray our dolls in any way but honestly. We want you to be happy! We take great pride in our customer service and quality. OOAKs are truly one of a kind, and are not always consistent with the manner in which factory dolls are constructed. Buyer agrees to pay for auction within 3 days of the auction end. We do file non-paying bidder forms if an item is not paid within required time. Please respect the fact that by winning the auction you are agreeing to a contract to pay for the item. Please do not bid if you are unable to pay. Thank you for your understanding. This is part of a major liquidation of a lifelong doll collection. My initial goal was to open a doll museum. I have the most amazing dolls and accessories, many of which will be sold or auctioned through eBay. Keep checking our auctions and store for some amazing opportunities to own some very beautiful and unique collectibles. Shipping Shipping is via USPS Priority mail. We do offer multiple item shipping discounts. Our policy is to ship within 48 hours of receipt of payment unless there is a holiday, mail closure, or severe weather limitations. For our international customers, please note that we are not responsible for any customs fees accrued due to the value of our items shipped. We insure for the actual price paid and please do not ask us to mark "gift" on the customs form. Thank you for your understanding. Any questions, please feel free to ask.
