Until recently every farm in Wales made cheese, each having their own
individual tastes and textures. Caerphilly has become one of the most
famous, and Welsh Doll Lyneth is depicted carrying her wares to market.
She is dressed in an open fronted woollen ‘betgwn’ (bedgown) with underskirt,
apron and shawl. Her underbonnet is trimmed with lace and she wears a
tall black felt hat. The basket is full of cheeses wrapped in muslin,
with smaller ones carried in the gathered folds of her apron.
As with all our authentic gift Welsh Dolls Lyneth stands 14” high (including
hat), Lyneth has porcelain head, hands and half-legs. Her features are
carefully china painted and she has life-like eyes and a soft brown mohair
wig.
