Louise Goldsborough, Proprietress of Angelique Miniatures says:

I have always loved and collected dolls of all sizes since I was a little girl and began sewing for my dolls at about the age of eleven. This became an avid hobby for me whilst I pursued my dancing and theatrical career but in 1987, fate decided to deal me a cruel hand and I suffered a bad accident whilst working on stage as an illusionist's assistant.

I decided to turn my love of doll making and dressmaking into a business and Angelique Miniatures was begun on 7th March 1988.

Originally I started by making up and dressing bought porcelain doll kits and selling them to local gift shops. Quite early on, one of the shops asked me if I would consider dressing a miniature doll for them and, as they say, the rest is history.

After a few years, I learned the art of making miniature porcelain doll parts thus enabling me to create exactly the type of character dolls that I and my rapidly growing collection of customers wanted. The ensuing years have allowed me to perfect my self-taught skills of doll dressmaking and Angelique was able to expand into clothing for other dolls sizes. I was also taken on as a designer at the British doll company ‘Alberon' and have since gone on to become a guest designer for the American ‘Clea Bella Company'.

I am now able to offer a unique and unrivalled range of miniature dolls and doll clothing to customers all over the world.

It has brought me an immense amount of pleasure over the years and I have met so many wonderful and talented people.

I look forward to the next twenty years.

I am always happy to accept commissions and can be contacted by e-mail, phone and post.
