About Me


Welcome to my blog Yugoslavian Folk Dolls.

I started collecting folk dolls from the region of the former Yugoslavia in 2009 and I currently own approximately 180. There are many different types of Yugoslavian folk dolls available but I only collect the early versions of the cloth over wire armature dolls of the type that were sold by the company Narodna Radinost. These dolls were available in a range of sizes and feature dolls wearing folk costumes from the six regions of the former Yugoslavia.

For some time I have wanted to start a blog as a way of sharing my love for Yugoslavian folk dolls and perhaps providing some information for others interested in the area or just looking to identify their own dolls.  I hope you enjoy seeing my collection,

Best wishes

Sacha
