Franklin Heirloom Collection Romeo & Juliet Hand-Painted Porcelain Dolls

Bring Shakespeare’s most famous love story to life with this exquisite Romeo and Juliet doll set from the Franklin Heirloom Collection by the Franklin Mint. Originally released in 1988 as part of a limited edition, these beautifully crafted dolls are a true collector’s treasure.

Each doll is hand-painted and features delicate porcelain faces. The doll's arms (up to the elbows) and Juliet’s legs (up to the knees) are made of porcelain; the bodies are made of soft cloth for a lifelike feel. They’re dressed in richly detailed Renaissance costumes: Juliet stuns in a ruby red velvet gown adorned with golden threads, faux pearls, and intricate braids woven through her silky dark brown hair. Beneath her dress, you’ll find an eyelet petticoat for added authenticity. Romeo wears a royal purple velvet tunic trimmed in gold, a ruffled white shirt, dark tights, brown boots, and a matching velvet hat. His look is finished with a golden belt set with a red faux stone and sleek black hair.

Every detail—from the period-accurate fabrics to the expressive, hand-painted faces—captures the timeless romance of Shakespeare’s iconic couple. The dolls are pre-owned but in excellent condition, ready to add a touch of literary elegance to your collection or home décor. Please note: the original box and Certificate of Authenticity (COA) are not included. Romeo and Juliet come in separate plastic doll boxes (see pictures) and need simple assembly.
