Amelia is part of a traveling troupe of performers and stands about 20 1/2" tall. Here's her story as told by Jill...
Amelia’s father was one of a troop of Italian circus entertainers who traveled around Europe, stopping at small villages, to sing, dance, put on plays and skits and amaze the country folk with their skills and laughter. Her mother Loretta, was a petite Romanian and made the most beautiful costumes in bright silky fabrics, laces that she dyed and strings of rainbow colored beads.
She is a skilled violin player, an amazing trapeze artist and dancer, as well as singing ballads in 5 different languages.
Her home is wherever she travels, but she loves spending time at her Aunt Maria’s cottage in a village on the side of a beautiful mountain where she can read, paint, ride ‘Noodles’ the donkey, bake gingerbread and see the city lights sparkling in the distance.
