Wonderfully romantic, but thoroughly modern in her independance, she was Scarlett O'Hara the unforgettable heroine of Gone With the Wind.

Her passionate spirit shone in an early, memorable scene at a neighboring plantation, Twelve Oaks. Here she declared her eternal love for Ashley Wilkes, promised to marry Charles Hamilton, and met the man destined to play the most important role in her life - the dashing Rhett Butler. This scene is beautiful captured in a wonderful collector edition doll - Barbecue at Twelve Oaks.

A petticoat, bloomers, and woven hat with green ribbon trim lend an authentic feel to the enchanting ensemble. Finally, a wonderful golden suite of earrings and necklace, accented with faux coral, completes this exceptional doll.
