The Woodland collection is born from a desire to have a basket full of dolls for little ones that come home, for them to play.
What a great treasure to have so much dolls to put clothes on or just to play with and to imagine stories, or also to take a nap with!
Those little hedgehogs are a beautiful family and all inspired by the woodland: How cute is this little animal?!
