The most expensive antique doll I've ever restored/ ASMR unintentional

Hi everyone and welcome to my channel! Today I'll restore a really rare and unique doll. This is the mold 939 from Simon and Halbig, and this mold is sure rare and really sought after by the collectors. And she's a real beauty! Hope you enjoy this video!

[@lavenderdust7912]

It's really unbelievable to what extent you go to in order to use historically accurate materials and techniques. Like, even the antique scale to weight the ingredients. Your work is absolutely outstanding and so, so beautiful to watch, I've never seen anyone put this much love into their craft.

[@whitegold4510]

I always imagine you like you are a fairy from another world that came here to bring to the history back the colours. Special Irene thank you..!!! I wish one day I can use my passions as a profession too 😊😊✨💎

[@jonahj8775]

She’s like the fairy godmother for dolls 🥰

[@pigtailsandteddybears]

​@@jonahj8775 Yes! 😊

[@PetiteFleurBleue2009]

Yes, I agree, the world needs more Irenes ❤

[@karengonzalez73]

You remind me of Doc McStuffins…the toy Doctor. Lidya is so beautiful! Great job once again.

[@mackennaomara4868]

She is most definitely a Tinker Fairy

[@msnace]

Your smile... When you look at her after putting on her hair, is BEAUTIFUL!

[@pearsrtasty3326]

My mother, she is gone now, she collected and also made dolls. NOTHING like this. This was wonderful watching. She made porcelain dolls. I remember she made 2 at one time. One was of me and the other my sister. And she matched our hair styles and our eye color and these dresses that she had made us for some occasion. I remember mine was this blue velvet. The face of the doll, looked just like me! It was incredible, the work she did. I wish I knew where my doll was. I would love to see it again, all I have are my memories of it. You did a wonderful job restoring this beautiful doll. I just love your work. Thank you for your content.

[@shellieblack528]

The loving care that you use Irene is so evident!! You sharing this with the world is so important!! Thank you! 💖

[@wendesmith6240]

My mother would have absolutely loved this programme - as I do.

[@joycew3086]

I love the idea of there being no music background! Hearing the sounds of the brush strokes, the little simple sounds makes the video more intriguing. I love it

[@ViKee010]

I just have to wonder why you don’t have a million subscribers? No one will give the fascination and beauty of restorations of this caliber. Your love for your art is visible in your hands and your face. Thank you for sharing this talent with us. I can’t wait to watch more. ✌🏻🤍🤞

[@elenanirhavenn2028]

[@DipityS]

The moment you add the eyes she becomes real - such a beautiful doll - it's a pleasure to see you bring her back to life.

[@Breezey-doodle]

The way you looked at her as you adjusted her curls brought me immense joy. I always look forward to seeing you videos! Stunning as always! ❤

[@dulciemidwinter1925]

Poor little dolly! Thank you for making her beautiful again.

[@nilsu23]

What a stroke of luck that her pretty face was preserved so well! You did such an amazing job as always, i can't wait for the video dedicated to her clothes, that cap is the cutest thing ❤

YYYYYEEEESSSS ART! ❤❤❤❤❤ I absolutely love this videos

[@kimholch1006]

WOW your work is absolutely breathtaking beautiful.......and so are the babies you help with your tlc.....you give them all their lives back.....God has blessed you when he picked you for the work you do with each and every baby you help...... love you....from Canada......

[@marypatrick7843]

It is obvious you love the dolls thru all stages of your restorations. I love the way you look adoringly at them and caress them as if they are your children. You are a true artist and extremely talented. Thank you for making these dolls come back to life.

[@silvergirl7810]

Nothing prettier than a jumeau doll! So glad you restored one- I’d love to see more of this!

[@dee_kay]

Ваши навыки реставрации просто поражают воображение! Прекрасная работа и очень приятное видео ❤

[@19katoon96]

My husband and I enjoy watching the delicate methods you use to bring the dolls back to brand new. You are truly talented!

[@judyzennnaro7336]

No one can really appreciate the work that takes so much research. Using the correct types of glue for example. I have done restoration for over 50 yrs. What I did was child’s play compared to the work of Irene. She is truly a master.

[@Lubov0021]

Ура! Опять сказка! Ирочка, вы настоящий скульптор! Так мастерски восстановить руку это восхитительно! Какой интересный экземпляр старинной шарнирной куклы😊 Теперь будем ждать видео про пошив этого замечательного кукольного наряда. Мне очень нравятся такие видео😊❤❤❤

[@ginasrebornbabys8333]

Hallo Irene, ich bewundere ihre Arbeit, und die liebe die sie in der Restauration der Puppen stecken einfach wundervoll. Liebe Grüße aus Hamburg von Gina 🤗

Я всегда жду момента, когда Вы первый раз ей улыбнётесь, в это мгновение она оживает! ❤ Невероятная работа! Фантастика! Обожаю Ваши видео! Спасибо ❤❤❤

[@user-bd4zj5pn2e]

I wish I knew more about your process, but even if I don't know, I love to watch you with all your amazing vintage tools!...the vessels, the pitcher, the scales, the powders and potions! They are just so fascinating! And the tender, skilled care you show to each beautiful doll is so wonderful to witness!

[@catherinegoldie6724]

Hello Irene, your talent is like the 7 wonders of the world, and you have the patience of a saint, you are truly the best restoration Artist out there, I just Love your work.X🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💕

[@ayayoya5503]

Finally you are here... 😊

[@kimphilpin1062]

Wow..your work is brilliant. I notice the moment the eyes go in they seem to gain a personality.x

[@JesseCase]

I like the old historical look of your shop with all the old jars and tools. I noticed that even your airbrush has been made to look like old brass or something. That must me a nice place to work in.😊

[@karenmusa3052]

Thanku so much for keeping these beautiful dolls alive and beautiful. Your love is written all over them xx

[@dianeknight4839]

Love watching you work. You are an artist not just a restorer.

[@doreenducharme7221]

Hello Irene, I was so very happy to see another restoration of such a rare doll. I enjoyed all the steps you took in fixing this cutie. I was amazed at how you curled the hair, and the clothes are beautiful, I shall look forward to see how you made the clothing. Thank you dear Irene.💝

[@user-pz4en9rb9k]

Спасибо за видео и отличную работу! Присоединяюсь ко всем добрым и восхитительным словам благодарности. У меня много старых кукол, но антикварных нет. Давно думаю на счёт покупки. Советских и немецких винтажных восстанавливаю сама. Мне всегда интересно купить куклу в плохом состоянии и работать с ней. Таких стареньких всегда боялась трогать, сомневалась в собственных силах и результате. Информации по крупицам собрала много, а опыта пока нет. После Ваших видео с куклами и Вашего интервью появилась уверенность и ещё большее желание это сделать. Каждый раз, приобретая "новую" куклу, думаю, что отремонтирую и продам или подарю, но пока все у меня. Не могу с ними расставаться. Спасибо, Ирина, Вы замечательный мотиватор!

[@natikir]

У вас золотые ручки,смотреть можно бесконечно на ваш труд ❤

[@user-zr4cm6nd8y]

Превосходная работа, спасибо вам за видео и кропотливый труд❤😊!))

Обожаю вышивать свои проекты под ваши видео! Спасибо, что находите время на съёмку и монтаж! Это потрясающе!

[@bobbibuttons8730]

You really are an amazing woman. I simply adore the antique equipment that you use. I love antique bits and pieces. The care and attention that you show every single thing you work on is astounding. There are some people on you tube who are a delight to watch and who create almost magical work. I can imagine you in a dolls hospital far away repairing all the dolls that have been loved and cherished and bringing them back to life with your incredible touch and imbuing each with some love from yourself.

[@marydegenkolb9603]

I love the commitment to the proper way to restore the doll. It makes the doll truly original. All the work and patience that goes in to proper restoration is evident in the final reveal. You are a true artist.

[@suraviguha1542]

I love watching ur videos on days I am stressed out or feel demotivated.....don't know how should I explain but it makes me feel yes everything can be fixed even it may seem impossible
