About Kaye

Hello Everyone

My name is Kaye and I am a very proud New Zealander.

This is my opportunity, and it is a delight, to introduce myself to you.

I made my first rag doll in 1990. Now having made thousands of dolls, I like to think of myself as one of New Zealand's premier doll makers.

We can all count numbers and 15,000 is a big number but to me I see that many smiles on the faces of children and adults who see their Rich Little Rag Doll for the first time.

The design has changed little over the years from earlier creations but the commitment to quality and care can be seen in the face of every doll.

30 years of Doll Making

In 30 years of creativity and care I love every minute of my day as I sit at my bench in the morning until I flick the switch and turn out the light, looking back only to the beautiful doll I have made that day.

I would like to share my journey with you. There are stories in every doll, in every dress and every accessory I have made.

Launching this website allows me to open my doors to a new generation of doll lovers and friends.
