• Storage Advice: Save the boxes, literature, and packaging materials for safe storage, relocation, and to preserve the future resale value of your collector doll.
• Handling Advice: If you wish to move a porcelain doll's limbs to change the pose, do so by grasping the limb above the porcelain joint and moving it gently but firmly into place. To preserve the fresh appearance and bright colors of your doll, it's best to keep it out of direct sunlight and to dust it regularly with a feather duster, especially inside the folds of the clothing.

Some doll materials, such as porcelain, are breakable, and the resulting sharp edges could cause injury if not handled with care.
