Description

Pair of Vintage Skookum Dolls 

This pair of vintage Skookum dolls reflects the timeless craftsmanship and detail of these iconic collectibles. Made with wood, fabric, wool, beads, synthetic hair, and horsehair, each doll is adorned in traditional-style attire that captures the essence of Native American-inspired design.

The taller doll, measuring 10.5 inches, is complemented by a slightly smaller doll at 9.5 inches, making this pair a striking addition to any collection of vintage memorabilia. Skookum dolls are cherished for their historical significance and representation of mid-century artistry, a trademark phrase reflecting the Chinook Jargon term "Skookum," meaning strong or excellent.
