I hate to throw anything away so when I broke several of my antique bisque doll heads, I knew I couldn't just toss them out. I spent hours gluing them back together and trying to come up with a way to use them.
Spike is the third of my steampunk assemblage dolls created with those broken heads. (Check out my other listings to see all three.) Spike was named for the antique square nails I used to accessorize him.
His body is made of two vintage blocks with the letter "S". His arms order and legs are antique doll parts excavated from the grounds of German doll factories operating between 1890 and 1920.
Spike told me to continue the punk theme by adding those antique square nails to his leather should pads and the front of the blocks. His leather collar is accented with spikes created with vintage watch stems and gears.
He's got a nose stud that's also a vintage watch stem and an old safety pin earring. His head is covered with more watch parts and one eye sports a "patch" created from a vintage watch face. Spike's also got the requisite arm and leg chains of antiqued brass.
Naturally he's got wings and his were created with a pair of vintage earrings.
If you have a favorite punk fan, then Spike will make the perfect gift. He's 5 inches tall and will ship parcel post.
