Dressed in one of the Heddal bunad variants, these little dolls are simply darling and represent two time periods in the work of Rønnaug Petterssen, their maker. Both with platinum blonde hair, the larger of the twins has a pressed felt face, reaches about 7.5" and is circa 1940s/50s. While her bunad is nearly identical to her slightly smaller predecessor, there are differences which can be seen in the pictures. Of note, is the finer detailing seen in the earlier of the two. The smaller of the twins is just over 7". This type is sometimes referred to as flat face, tho that is not an accurate description, as there is slight modeling in her facial features. She is circa 1930s. The bunad of this region has evolved by historical periods. The earliest known as the Raudtrøje was the womanʻs dress at the first half of the 19th century. The Beltestakk is the womanʻs dress form from the 2nd half of the 19th century and it is a popular bunad worn today. The National Bunad Council has strict guidelines for classifying and judging ʻproper bunads.ʻ New designs must meet standards according to the history and traditions of the area. Rønnaug Petterssen took great effort to detail her dolls authentically to the culture. These dolls, while small, reflect that study & passion. I have pictured them with larger cousins so that you could get a sense of their petite size. Larger dolls will one day, have listings of their own. You are welcome to submit offers on them if you are interested. These Heddal twins are in quite nice vintage condition, with minor wear, all visible in the pictures and not at all unexpected for their age. Perfect imperfection !
