chunky red apple

Inside the large red apple is a wood girl dressed up as the apple core - she has a real twig in her hair, with a wooden painted leaf. She is kept company by a jolly little worm who lives in the apple with her.

Artist notes:
My pieces are painted in a naïve and simple style, with visible brush strokes and differing paint consistencies. It is important to note that these dolls are made from real wood which will have naturally occurring markings and grain, and sometimes there will be small amount of bleeding along the grain, or knots, which is to be expected when using untreated wood - please make sure you consult the pictures carefully before purchasing. Finished in a top coat of matt acrylic.

Round turned wood shapes are altered and hand painted by me, a British artist, exploring patterns and scenes encountered by me on my travels and in daily life.

Apple has a 'blue bear' stamp in red ink on the base.
Total 20cm high with girl inside.
Please note: THIS IS NOT A TOY and should be kept out of the reach of children.

US CUSTOMERS: Please be aware that new import fees (tariffs) are now being applied by the US government to all imported goods - they vary by country of manufacture, which means 10% on goods manufactured in the UK (everything in my store). The good news is that if you purchase something from my store between now and February 2026 I will be trialling an 'all duties paid' service, which means you won't have to pay extra when the items arrive in the US. Some larger pieces may be sent separately to prevent damage.
