The dolls' bodies are Vieve's exclusive design. Each sculpt has its own custom-made body crafted from the softest sable-suede in a shade matching the head and limbs. Premium grade polyfil is used to stuff the body, which is weighted with resin and glass pellets. NO sand is ever used nor are magnets used for pacifiers or bows.
Vieve uses artist's quality, permanent, non-toxic polymer and resin paints in the most delicate of transparent pigments. This gives the vinyl the elusive and subtle appearance of living skin. The baby's realistic hair is either genuine human hair or the finest mohair, micro-rooted to look natural. The hair roots are then sealed on the inside of the head with high-grade silicone, a non-toxic waterproof polymer which gives the best adherence to the vinyl.
The vinyl is not heated in the painting process and retains its original softness, ensuring a lifelike quality in the finished baby doll.

Vieve designs and makes many of the outfits the babies are wearing. These outfits are unique and will not be reproduced.
Her lifelike baby dolls are collectibles and have a catalog number on the back of each doll's neck. You can rest assured that you will be adopting a quality, artist-made, reborn baby when you adopt from La Doll-ce Vita®. You are buying a work of art, a heirloom to be passed on to later generations.

Note: Prices are in US dollars. They vary according to the cost of materials.

Letter from a happy ‘mommy’:

"Phoebe (Pearl) arrived this morning. She is perfect, everything you said.
Her solemn little face, the beautiful clothes you made, her
natural (not over done) skin tones. I love her. I especially like
the way her eyes look right at you --- she makes eye contact
like she's really paying attention. Thank you so much for such a perfect little "baby."



A hand written letter I loved receiving came from an 85-year-old ‘mom’ :

"I just wanted to tell you how I enjoy the reborn baby doll you made for the E... Doll Show & Sale. You did such a good job of her. I showed her to many to many people and they just can’t believe how she looks like a real Baby.

I hold her every night when we’re watching T.V., she’s so real.

Thank you so much for selling her to me. I hope to see you again."



Yet another letter:

Dear Vieve

I can’t thank you enough for letting me adopt baby Paula. She’s so beautiful and I love her more and more every day. As I live alone she’s wonderful company for me. I love her pretty face, the way her eyes seem to follow me about the room and, of course, her outfits are to die for. I change her every other day and it’s like she has a different personality depending on the clothes she wears. I’m so grateful for the magic you make in that studio of yours. I’m looking forward to being able to afford a little baby brother for my dear Pauline.

Thanks again.

Yours ever,

Deirdrie C.
