Darnell by Nancy Brun

Darnell by Nancy Brun

Darnell is a 20-inch "carved wood" (resin) boy by Nancy Brun of Brunswood Dolls.  Additional information about the artist can be found at the end-of-post link.

Darnell has a wooden head and shoulder plate with wooden lower arms and lower legs. The body, upper arms and upper legs are stuffed cloth.

He has painted black hair, painted brown eyes, and a smiling mouth that reveals two upper teeth.

Darnell wears a rust wool cap.  His off-white knit shirt is worn underneath a brown/white/orange striped long-sleeved knit shirt.  His tan overalls have patched knees.

Darnell has a fishing rod made of a thorny branch with a string that has a silver resin fish attached to the end.

Darnell is proud of his one-fish catch.

He is numbered and signed behind his right ear.

Made in 1992 in a limited edition of 250, Darnell is #77.

I was not aware of Brun's dolls in 1992.  Having seen the dapper Maurice recently in a Theriaut's auction posting and others on eBay from time to time, I wanted to add at least one Brunswood doll to my collection.  As blessings would have it, Darnell was offered on eBay at a price I could not possibly refuse.  Other than not having his box and his certificate of authenticity, he came "home" with everything the artist gave him.

Information about the artist remains available on the Brunsart website.
