Up for auction is a remarkable, highly collectible 17-piece assortment of artisan-crafted miniatures created by the renowned doll artist Betty Devitt. Dating strictly to 1980–1981, almost every piece in this unique lot is individually hand-signed and dated on the reverse. This cohesive collection features a complete miniature doll alongside a beautiful selection of wearable novelty brooches and pins, making it an exceptional find for collectors of vintage studio doll art, miniatures, and figural costume jewelry. Highly Regarded Doll Artisan: Betty Devitt is a celebrated Canadian doll artist known for her meticulously hand-finished porcelain and bisque creations. Her work bridges the gap between beloved commercial nostalgia (like Rose O'Neill Kewpies) and studio-quality art. Pickup category timeslot {A}
