Jade the Crystal Healer, a Gourd and Clay Folk Art Doll by Jeanne Fry

 She lived in the same home as her mother and grandmothers before her, and carried on their tradition of crystal healing. She was taught how to dig for crystals, cut them, polish them, and about the healing properties of every stone that exists. She has dedicated her life to helping others, educating them about their uses and helping each person find just the ones they want and need.

Katrina Maize the Crystal Healer Spirit Doll

I'd like to introduce to you a new friend...a bounty of beauty in a small package. Her name is Katrina Maize and she is a crystal healer.
Katrina Maize the Crystal Healer Spirit Doll by Jeanne Fry
She comes from a very distant, remote, and private island in European waters where she grew up learning everything there is to know about crystals and gemstones. As a child, you would never see Katrina without gemstones with her, most often her pockets were stuffed with them.
Crystal Healer with Citrine Druz Crystal
 As she grew older she learned how to use them in healing, realizing how powerful these beauties from nature could be. She collects her rocks from all over the Earth, but she is always willing to share her treasures...she always has just the right one to give as a gift to someone who needs a little love in their day.


(This cloth and clay art doll is a Crystal Healer named Katrina Maize. Katrina is completely hand stitched from a vibrant print fabric and sculpted into a seated position. Her face is clay, painted, and sealed. Her hair is hand dyed wool fibers that is intricately placed and swept back and adorned with gemstones. In her hands she holds several gemstones of rutilated quartz, carnelian, and green aventurine. She wears a small black velour mini skirt that is beaded up the side with carnelian and green aventurine. On her left knee sits a citrine druz crystal cluster. Katrina is approximately 6 inches tall, rich and divine. Her lap is a perfect place for you to place even more of your own crystals.)

Elizabeth the Folk Artist from Black Mountain, NC

New to the Wisdom Keeper Art Doll clan is Elizabeth.

Elizabeth is a Folk Artist from Black Mountain, North Carolina. Her mother and her grandmother
were Appalachian Granny Women - herbalists and midwives in the North Carolina Mountains. Now that the mountains are more populated and modern ways have come, doctors exist in those towns and the Granny Women aren't needed as they once were. 


So Elizabeth adapted her knowledge of herbs and plants into creating Folk Craft. Every morning she walks the mountain paths behind her cabin to gather nature's beauty. From these she created Lavender Bundles, Flower Wreaths, Carved Gourd Bowls, Soaps and Perfumes.

                  Her daughters are learning from her to carry on the knowledge of these wise women.





Elizabeth is a Gourd Art Doll. She is approximately 16 inches tall and 8 inches in diameter.Her hat, over coat, and skirt are hand sewn of tweed with fiber embellishements for trim. She is holding a dried pod which is holding two small pumpkins and mini gourd. In her pockets are dried naturals and peacock feather.
Her scarf is closed with a shell bead. Her hair is braided with leather ties. She is attached to wooden base for display.
