This vintage hula girl doll, from the mid-20th century, is from an estate sale. It features a grass skirt, flower lei, and posed in a traditional hula dance stance. It has black hair adorned with a red flower and a white lei, a yellow grass skirt. Hula dolls emerged as a way for tourists to capture the essence of their Hawaiian experience. The hula, a dance form expressing chant or song, is central to Hawaiian culture, telling stories of history, genealogy, and prophecy. The hula 'auana, which originated in the 19th century, incorporates Western influences, with costumes evolving from traditional pa'u skirts to longer dresses and the inclusion of stringed instruments. Today, these hula dolls are considered retro chic decor and a reminder of the Hawaiian Islands' beauty and culture. 13” tall in exceptional condition I fancy to make bundle deals and I’m open for offers on all of my items.
