This doll was given as a prize to Alice Brown for her sewing skills when she was just five years old. The doll has blue glass eyes and is dressed in a style of children’s clothing typical of the 1880s. The clothes are made of silk. Supposedly, Alice called her doll ‘Rosie’. Rhoddwyd y ddoli hon yn wobr i Alice Brown am ei sgiliau gwnïo pan nad oedd hi’n ddim mwy na phum mlwydd oed. Mae gan y ddoli lygaid gwydr glas ac mae’n gwisgo dillad sidan plentyn sy’n nodweddiadol o’r 1880au. Yn ôl y sôn, “Rosie” oedd yr enw y byddai Alice yn galw ei doli.
