Anne Whittle nicknamed Chattox, was the head of one of the two unfortunate families accused of Witchcraft in England 1600', and hanged in Lancaster in 1612.
Dressed in the spirit of the time, there is plenty of detail in her very elaborate outfit like the burgundy satin blouse decorated with burgundy braids and a feathery touch! Her double skirt is ornate with two layers of lace and two layers of dusky pink gauze with a trimming of black feathers. Her crinkly taffeta trousers are certainly a statement!
Of course the hat matches the rest of the outfit being made of burgundy crinkly taffeta and decorated with large voile bows. What a riot of fabrics and trimmings! Needless to say that even the burgundy velvet shoes are a perfect match for the hat. As a final touch, a satin shawl in burgundy and gold and a double strand of burgundy beads necklace!
She’s got a beautiful smile on her face – all highly detailed in porcelain. (Even the pimple stands out...)
And not to spoil it all, she really rides her broomstick like a lady (her porcelain hands hardly touch it)!
All in all, a beautiful porcelain creation, from our Witches of Pendle range, of high detail recommended for the collector and enthusiast alike. Collectables are not just for Halloween, but for every season in between!
Chattox, the witch doll, measures 45cm long and can be hang of a transparent thread which is attached to the hat. The witch has a complimentary copy of the Trial and History of the Witches of Pendle attached.
If you would like to take Chattox, the witch doll, home (or any of the Witches of Pendle), please make sure you select the desired postal rates at checkout.
