With her bright red braids, freckles, vivid imagination, and unmistakable determination, Anne has delighted generations of readers, and this charming Simpich design captures her personality beautifully.

This Anne of Green Gables come with a print of a sketch Jan Simpich created prior to designing the Simpich Character Doll. Its fun to get a little window in the creative process of Jan Simpich, as many of the design elements in the drawing are reflected in her final design. This is also a Limited Edition of 500.

Seated atop a rustic shipping crate, Anne appears ready for the journey that will carry her into a completely new life. She holds a copy of Tennyson close to her heart, while a wonderfully textured carpetbag rests across her lap. Her straw hat, lace-up boots, patterned dress, and carefully layered fabrics give the piece a warm, handmade quality, while the barrel and weathered wooden platform complete the sense of arrival and adventure.

The details throughout the design are especially delightful. Anne’s expressive green eyes, hopeful smile, scattered freckles, and long red braid immediately bring the beloved character to life. Even the patchwork accent on her apron and the richly woven fibers of her bag add to the storytelling, reflecting the humble but spirited young girl at the heart of Lucy Maud Montgomery’s classic novel.

It is a joyful and beautifully realized addition to the Simpich Storybook Collection—perfect for collectors who appreciate classic literature, memorable characters, and the warmth and personality found throughout the finest Simpich designs.
