So exciting!
We are being featured in this month's Dolls Magazine, and we are also providing the prize in the competition this month. Mags can be ordered from https://www.discoverdolls.co.uk/purchase |
We wanted to thank our lovely customers for being patient with us during this difficult time trying to keep working to schedule despite the pandemic crisis. Another note we would like to make, is that we would imagine customers might be feeling anxious about the spread of the virus in the packaging of the doll, or even on the surface of the doll, for which we would like to give the following assurance:
Once your doll has been finished, ie painted and rooted, she will be bathed thoroughly with soap and water, to ensure all traces of any contact with one of us, has been removed. |
Our World of Chi was inspired by two friends, Carolyn Doughty of Dreams Reborn, who sculpted and made reborn baby dolls and Ja'mir Graham of McFaeragons, who sculpted magic, mythological and faerie folk.
The main difference in these sculpts is, most people nowadays like human baby ”art dolls” to be anatomically correct, showing their gender in full splendour so to speak. The magical beings on the other hand are androgynous, or can choose to be male or female , and as they have no need for an earth form, they can choose to have one so people can get a feel for the magic that lives within.
And so ...... our Chi family was born.
All beings, human and fae have one thing in common - an energy stream that runs through the body and makes us who we are. This was the commonality that we decided to incorporate to make all concerned happy. We both sculpt and pour different sculpts - Ja'mir often makes the smaller babies, Carolyn the larger ones. Very often they are a joint venture.
The energy stream is called many things in many parts of the world, we decided on Chi which is the Chinese name for it. The energy stream is similar to light within the body that is unseen by most but felt by many, some knowingly, sometimes not. I am sure you have met someone who you felt you knew for a long time yet only just introduced, or met someone and the hairs stand up on your neck as an uncomfortable warning for no apparent reason. This is our Chi and holds all memories past, present and future , our thoughts, our dreams, the magic that we keep hidden within.
Our Chi Family have been made with very special care, and focus on detail. Each sculpt has an individual unique chi showing through their bodies , it is sculpted on and raised and highlighted , to not only show you their unique magic, but to remind you of how magical and unique you are too.
Both being fascinated with numerology , we have also taken great care when naming our sculpts , so they vibrate at the same energy frequency of the personality that shine through when being sculpted. We all vibrate at a certain frequency depending on our birth date and given name with a lot of power given to our used name.

Your silicone baby, elf, chi child or critter is hand-made with love from start to finish. He or she is sculpted by hand out of a piece of clay by either Ja'mir or myself. Then a mould is made, again by hand, and we pour our silicone characters ourselves in our home studios. We do not 'ship out' the process to a manufacturer ... all our silicone characters are little pieces of artistic magic. They are not mass produced ! At 'Our World of Chi', we believe in putting character and soul into our creations. Every piece is different. Your magic little person ( like humans ) may well have the odd small anomaly being hand made but this is what makes OUR creations totally unique ... - magical, and appealing.

I am sharing this video, posted by one of our customers and now friend, Carol.
Carol adopted one of our Alfie babies and this video and her lovely words are just wonderful.
My thoughts and feelings about silicone babies and collectors, mirror these so exactly ... and she says it so beautifully.
Whether you are a collector, interested onlooker, a friend, or somebody who cannot understand why people enjoy collecting these beautiful pieces of art, please take a few moments to listen and think about what is being said.
Simply beautiful.
