Seminole dolls, often referred to as "mini dolls" due to their small, portable size (typically 6–12 inches tall), are traditional handmade figures created by the Seminole and Miccosukee peoples of Florida. These dolls are more than toys—they embody cultural identity, historical resilience, and economic ingenuity, serving as miniature representations of Seminole fashion, hairstyles, and jewelry from the early 20th century onward. They predate modern commercial dolls like Barbie by decades and have been a staple of Seminole craftsmanship since the 1900s.
