I would like to introduce to you Lord Arsenic, once considered The Poison of Kings.
With his smiling eyes and leering grin you can see he revels in slowly bringing about your Deathly Pallor.

Lord Arsenic is a Collaboration between my mother and I.

He measures 21 inches long (not including his tophat) and his head circumference including ears measures 9 1/2 inches around.

I chose black satin fabric and plain black broadcloth for his suit in which my mother (Anita at motherearthoils.etsy.com) measured him and drew out his pattern from scratch then cut and sewed up his suit. I then hand sewed his frilly trim to his cuffs and also his Jabot (neck cloth) along with his skull and crossbones metal buttons to his jacket. Clothes ARE NOT removable.

I sculpted his head, hands and feet with paperclay over dowel rods then painted them with gesso and acrylics and shaded with chalk pastels. They were sealed with Liquitex Matte sealer for non yellowing UV protection. I added Gloss Varnish over his eyes.

His body is unbleached muslin cloth that I sewed up using my own pattern and filled with craft pellets for weight in the bottom then polyester fiberfill. All of the paperclay parts can turn in their sockets and his arms and legs are softly poseable. (No wires inserted).

His tophat was made with stiff black felt for the top and brim and soft felt over cardstock for the body and his cane is a dowel rod with a clay tip and a recycled solid rubber skull that I painted with acrylics and sealed with plastic sealer. I then added gloss varnish and red swarovski crystals for his eyes.

His hair is 100% Wool.

He is signed and dated on the back of his neck.

Lord Arsenic is a Collector Art Doll and not intended for children.

NOTE: Do not leave paperclay in direct sunlight for high heat will cause it to continue curing which will lead to cracking.

He will ship Priority Mail with Insurance and Delivery Confirmations in the US.
