Evalyn Jane - The Victorian Summer
Limited Edition #633/2000
Edition Size: 2,000 (Introduced 1989)
A radiant companion to the beloved Victorian Skater, the Victorian Summer doll was introduced in 1989 as a warm-weather portrait of the same elegant figure. With the skates put away and a parasol in hand, she steps gracefully into the garden season — exchanging her fur-lined coat for a flowing summer gown, full of color, charm, and timeless sophistication.
Though her wardrobe has changed with the seasons, the sculpted portrait remains the same: this piece shares its head design with the original Victorian Skater, which was modeled by Jan Simpich in honor of her sister Evelyn Jane (“Pudge”). The legacy and emotional heart behind the piece — one of love, memory, and artistic tribute — carries forward in every version of this limited-edition figure.
Each Victorian Summer doll was dressed in a unique combination of print and solid fabrics in soft pastel shades: pink, blue, peach, yellow, lavender, and green. Hair could be either blonde or brunette, with matching blue or brown painted eyes. From her hand-crafted parasol to the fine detailing in her Victorian boots, every element reflects the delicate craftsmanship and attention to grace that defines the Simpich tradition.
A true collector’s treasure — both for its rarity and its story — the Victorian Summer brings warmth, elegance, and legacy to any display.
Condition: Excellent
