Mourning bride doll · Savannah, Georgia
“Still waiting at the altar.”
Clementine was dressed as a bride and never a guest. Family lore holds she was made in the likeness of a young woman whose wedding never came; the doll was kept at the head of the table where the bride should have sat.
She is gentle but heavy with feeling. Caretakers report a cool draft near her veil and, on occasion, the faint scent of orange blossom — the flower of a wedding that did not happen.
