William and Mary period wooden doll reproduction

I am working on my new doll . This is my version of early Williams and Mary period wooden dolls. I am very like this style dolls with nice face and Mona Lisa smile. My doll will be 21" tall .
The eye brows and eye lashes were painted as tiny lines. She has  highly rouged cheeks. The large black spots on the faces emulate "beauty spots" which were fake moles that women applied to their skin - the height of fashion at the times. She will be dressed on 17 century period costume.
