"Xenis is a family business and they are all very involved in making the absolute best collectible doll that they possibly can. The result is a masterpiece of work- all maple wood body, with moveable joints and hand painted. They use only the finest fabrics in clothing their dolls and the results are simply stunning."...Yvonne at DollsvilleThe Xenis Collection is the creator behind some of the world`s most beautiful wooden dolls. The company was founded in 1994 by Marlene Xenis who, in the first years, worked from the basement of her home. Marlene was later joined by her two daughters, Tania and Jesse along with a team of highly skilled artists. The business was moved into a beautiful studio on acreage in Aldergrove, a small town just outside of Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada.
Marlene has had an artistic flare from childhood and was always heavily involved in theatre and music. The need to create has always been strong in her family. To create something unique and beautiful that makes a person smile and feel good just by gazing at it and holding it is a remarkable feeling.
Marlene and her team design all the clothing, making the patterns and then creating the most amazing outfits to complement any particular doll.
The finished doll is then hugged and carefully packaged, ready to be delivered to you..
