dollmaker
Creates miniature people
A dollmaker is someone who creates dolls, whether as a craft, art form, or profession.
The term covers hobbyists who sew cloth dolls at home and artisans who sculpt elaborate porcelain figures: The dollmaker's studio was filled with tiny glass eyes and miniature wigs.
Dollmaker sometimes appears in horror contexts, where creating lifelike human replicas carries sinister undertones.
