"Newborn Blue" and "Dark Newborn Blue" are our own exclusive colors, sold only through our doll shop (and SillyPrilly on ebay.) Both colors are a favorite for infant dolls. These muted, lovely blue/gray colors are similar to the indistinct blue that newborn infants have. The dark newborn blue can even be used for ethnic dolls.

These high quality acrylic eyes have a clear shaped cornea for realism. (Eyes with a raised cornea are called "paper-weighted " by the doll industry.)

Sold as whole eyes only, but if you need half eyes you can use a pliers to crack the back of the eye, and the front will pop off easily. The photo below shows a whole eye that is in two pieces.

These beautiful colors are meant to give depth and realism to your dolls. When we first discovered these eye colors, they were called "Spirit" eyes, which we think is appropriate because they do appear to give "life" to the dolls who wear them.

One of our customers provided a photo of her doll with the DARK VIOLET eyes. She thinks dark violet is the undiscovered color... you have to SEE them in your doll to understand how beautiful they are. Thank you to Donna Evans for providing the photo above!

HOW TO FIT EYES...You do need to measure the original eye to get an idea of what size replacement you need for your vinyl doll. Measure with a metric ruler, across the diameter of the eye. It's easier to do this if you measure across the back of the half eyes. I use my sewing gauge because it has metric on one side.
