Shebari, which means Bride, is a
Romanian gypsy who is leaving her
village to get married. She waves
good-by to her family as she
rides away into the sunset in her
special gypsy Bridal Wagon made
especially for her by her groom to be.

Shebari was designed for the
2008 Treasures of the gypsy challenge.
Her head and hands are doe suede, and
the body limbs and costume are from
Treasures of the gypsy challenge fabric of
lavish silks and trims. She is a petite 10",
has articulated hands, hand painted and
needle sculpted features. Her wagon is
from a gourd, carved and painted,
Tibetan wool hair.
