Kish & Company began with an idea….

Helen Kish has been creating dolls since the early 1980’s. She started out as most artists do - a complete amateur. But the love of dolls and of sculpture spurred her on, as she gave herself new challenges with every sculpt. By the close of the 80’s, Helen had developed a following for her porcelain editions and was represented by one of the leading venues in the US - The Toy Shoppe.

In 1991, Kish & Company debuted its first line of vinyl dolls, three representations of girls from the 1930’s, the 1950’s and the 1970’s, which just happened to coincide with Helen’s mother’s, hers and her daughter’s generations.

Along the way, Helen added other forms of figurative art to her body of work, including bronzes and OOAK stoneware figures. Visit the Gallery, Archives & the Legacy Shop to see more Kish & Company dolls and spanning the past forty years.

Where have all the years game? Blessings to you all from Tamas and Helen.
