Valerie Fogel joins host Louisa Maxwell to explore the history of Maison Huret, famous for creating luxury French fashion dolls with the finest fashions and accessories. In 1844 Mademoiselle Calixté Huret was inspired to create a doll with an idealised view of a young lady with an elaborate lifestyle. Calixté worked with her sister Leopoldine creating a family business that celebrated innovation, in the art of the doll.
Valerie Fogel has loved dolls since her father brought them home from every port when she was a small child. As her collection and knowledge grew, so has her fascination for historic dolls from Europe. Valerie has lectured at The United Federation of Doll Clubs and received awards from them for her work to advance the the goals of preservation, education and study of dolls. Valerie contributes‘ The UFDC’s publication Doll News’, and Antique Doll Collector Magazine. She is also recognised by the National Art and Antique Dealers Association and is the owner of Beautiful Bébés Antique Dolls.
