One of the very first characters that Elizabeth and I wanted to design for our line of Minikin dolls was Agatha Christie's Belgian Detective. A little Hercule Poirot doll seemed made for these miniature felt characters. After a lot of time studying the various suits worn by David Suchet in the Poirot TV shows (a family favorite), we finally came up with six different suits.
We listed four of these in the shop on Wednesday and were still working on the last two --- but all six sold in about five minutes! :) We are now hard at work making some more to list again. We do have a "Custom Order" option available in the meantime.
All of the suits are made of a Wool/Rayon felt, and the heads, hair and trademark mustache are needle-felted out of 100% wool. We're planning on designing Minikins of Captain Hastings, Miss Lemon and Inspector Japp in the future, so keep checking back!
