Knecht Ruprecht is dedicated to finest, OOAK artist made Waldorf Dolls for any occasion and for every age. Marie, the artist behind Knecht Ruprecht, is a former Waldorf Student and holds a Master of Fine Arts degree from University of Art and Design Linz. She belives in the importance of Doll Play and it is a pleasure for her to create these important little friends for Children of all ages who accompany them through the most significant childhood years. All types of dolls offered are proved and tested by her own little children and suitable for daily use. All dolls are handmade in her studio in Austria. Only the most exquisite and organic materials are used.
"Play with dolls is of special importance because it is one of the ways through which the child can externalize his own inner being."
Rahima Baldwin Dancy, You Are Your Child's First Teacher
"As the child nurtures & mothers the doll, he is not simply metaphorically, but also in reality caring for himself. It is important therefore, that we offer a doll that closely resembles him/her, not so much in features but rather in proportion. The child's "felt experience" of the doll will remain with him/her. So let's keep the doll simple, proportional & tactilely truthful."
Words by Shariffa Oppenheimer in regards to Waldorf dolls.
