This page gathers all detailed answers about the manufacturing, delivery, care, and after-sales service of our realistic silicone dolls. Each model is entirely handmade in France, combining advanced silicone technology with traditional craftsmanship. Learn more about our materials, customization options, and maintenance below. For a quick overview, visit our short Silicone Dolls FAQ .
Silicone dolls, also known as realistic dolls, love dolls, or lifelike companions, are much more than simple adult products. As a French manufacturer, we design each silicone doll as a full-scale artistic creation, shaped by hand in our workshop. Our dolls are made entirely from high-grade silicone, a safe, durable, flexible, and soft material that offers a lifelike touch similar to human skin. Each model features an articulated metal skeleton that mimics the movement and balance of the human body, allowing natural and realistic poses. A silicone doll is, in essence, a life-sized representation of the female form : graceful, realistic, and timeless.
When we founded 4Woods Europe in 2011, our first goal was to create premium silicone dolls designed primarily for intimate companionship. However, over the years, our clients have shown us how diverse the uses can be.
Each doll is designed with functional anatomy and a soft, natural feel. Many of our clients appreciate their doll as a discreet and intimate partner, offering a comforting presence and aesthetic pleasure.
Our dolls are also used by photographers, sculptors, painters, and designers. Their realistic proportions, stability, and ability to hold complex poses make them exceptional artistic models.
Beyond their physical realism, many clients display their dolls as part of an interior setting : dressed, styled, and posing as contemporary art.
Some of our customers describe their doll as a soothing companion during personal challenges such as grief, separation, or solitude.
Each face is sculpted with distinct emotion (tenderness, serenity, curiosity), allowing everyone to find a presence that resonates personally.
At 4Woods Europe, our philosophy remains constant : to create handcrafted silicone dolls that embody realism, beauty, and emotion. True works of art made in France.
There is no typical profile of a 4Woods Europe customer. Our clients range from 18 to 88 years old and come from every background : artisans, engineers, artists, entrepreneurs, executives, and independent professionals. We also count a few women among our clientele. What unites them is not age or profession, but personality. Most share a creative, sensitive, and independent spirit. Many discover a new artistic expression through photography or staging their doll. Our customers think differently, seek authenticity, and value beauty, both emotional and aesthetic. Take a look at our customers testimonials.

When choosing a realistic silicone doll, it’s important to consider several criteria. Not all dolls on the market are made with the same materials, techniques, or attention to detail. Even when materials appear similar, their quality (in strength, durability, realism, and tactile comfort) can vary widely. At 4Woods Europe, every doll meets the highest standards of craftsmanship and finish :
Our internal skeleton allows a wide range of natural poses, with multiple axes of rotation. It is built from premium materials such as aluminium, stainless steel, and reinforced joints.
Our exclusive Soft Skin silicone is patented for prolonged contact with human skin. It combines durability, softness, and an exceptionally realistic touch.
The anatomical finishes of our dolls are sculpted by professional artists, resulting in lifelike detail in every part of the body : hands, feet, torso, and face.
Each doll is refined by hand after demolding. Pigmentation, makeup, and surface finishing are done individually to achieve perfect balance and harmony.
Our after-sales team, based in France, provides support and repair services throughout the life of your doll. Choosing a 4Woods Europe doll means choosing excellence, durability, and a truly handcrafted work of art. Check the quality of our materials.
Many silicone dolls on the market use lower-grade materials or simpler skeleton structures.
They may look similar in photos but differ greatly in internal quality, safety, and finish.
At 4Woods Europe, we use only premium components and medical-grade silicone to ensure long-term durability, comfort, and realism.
Our dolls represent a lasting investment in craftsmanship and quality.

Creating a single handcrafted silicone doll requires more than a full week of work.
Because each model is made to order, our average production time is around 8 to 12 weeks.
Lead times may vary depending on current orders — we can inform you of the estimated delivery time upon request.
Yes, in some cases. While we never compromise on quality, we can schedule an expedited order and delivery within approximately 6 weeks, with an additional cost of €1,000. If this time frame cannot be met, the extra fee will be refunded, and your doll will still be completed as soon as possible.
Our dolls are crafted from premium-grade silicone, specially formulated and patented for prolonged contact with human skin.
This exclusive material combines strength, flexibility, and a soft, lifelike texture for unmatched realism.
Each 4Woods Europe doll is entirely handmade in our French workshop.
The process includes :
– Assembly of the metal skeleton
– Foam injection around the skeleton
– Installation into the mold
– Silicone casting
– Demolding
– Finishing touches
Every stage of production is carried out with strict quality control to ensure perfect balance, durability, and finish. Discover our workshop here !
The silicone we use is patented and certified for prolonged skin contact. It is non-toxic, odorless, and hypoallergenic. No allergic reactions have ever been reported by our customers. Our Soft Skin silicone fully complies with European safety standards and ensures a safe, comfortable experience over time.
The silicone is tinted while in its liquid state, before being poured into the mold. Color details such as nipples, intimate areas, and makeup are then airbrushed by hand. All pigments are permanently sealed with a special silicone-based fixative to ensure long-lasting color stability.

– A lingerie set
– One wig of your choice
– A comb
– A bottle of lubricant
– A user guide
We recommend keeping the original shipping box, which is ideal for long-term storage in safe conditions.
Our dolls are shipped in double-reinforced cardboard boxes for optimal protection.
Each component is carefully wrapped :
Hands and feet are protected with soft film,
The body is placed inside its cotton case and surrounded by bubble wrap,
The head is packed separately in its own box.
This method has proven extremely reliable over time, ensuring that every handcrafted doll arrives in perfect condition.
Each complete order (body + one or two faces + accessories) is shipped in a box measuring approximately 155 × 60 × 30 cm, with a total weight not exceeding 40 kg.
Yes. Our French workshop offers full after-sales service throughout the lifetime of your doll. This support is one of the key advantages of owning a handcrafted 4Woods Europe silicone doll. We can repair silicone tears anywhere on the body and perform detailed work on the internal skeleton when needed. Entire parts of the skeleton can be replaced with great precision. Whatever the type of repair, we always ensure the most aesthetic and discreet result possible.
Please contact us by email and describe the issue in detail. If necessary, we will ask for photos to assess the repair and estimate the required time. Once we confirm the quote, we will schedule the repair at a time that suits you.
Prices depend on the type of repair and whether shipping is required.
Estimates are free of charge, feel free to contact us for a quotation.
Once you approve the quote, you may either bring your doll to our workshop by appointment or request carrier collection. We will assist you in preparing the shipment and provide all necessary details.
Before any repair, please clean your doll thoroughly with mild soapy water and let her dry completely. This is essential for hygienic handling. If the doll is not cleaned beforehand, we may either apply an additional cleaning charge or return the parcel unprocessed. Then, protect your doll as follows :
– Wrap hands and feet (for example, in soft socks).
– Place the body inside the cotton storage case, then wrap it with bubble film.
– Pack the head separately in its original box, also wrapped in bubble film (sending the head may not always be necessary).
– Place the head box between the legs, wrap the entire set in bubble film again, and close the box securely.
Your doll will then be ready for collection.
Yes, of course. Keep the original shipping box and protective materials, as they are ideal for safe transport. We will arrange a convenient date and time slot for pickup (usually Monday to Friday, between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m.). The carrier requires a two-hour time window, and someone must be present at home during collection.
Measurements vary between body types. Each body’s detailed measurements are provided in its dedicated presentation gallery to help you select the right size.
A realistic doll is designed to reproduce the softness, flexibility, and proportions of the human body. To achieve this realism, each doll includes an articulated internal skeleton that allows natural postures and fluid balance. The joints are intentionally firm to prevent unnatural movement, so you should never force them.
Although robust, your doll must be handled carefully, as you would handle a work of art. When treated properly, she is very durable and will not suffer damage from normal use. A detailed user guide is included with every doll to help you learn safe handling.
Yes, but keep in mind that each doll has a realistic weight, around 30 kg. This weight gives stability and lifelike movement but requires some physical strength to lift and pose. Please make sure you are comfortable handling such weight before ordering. The limits of motion are clearly explained in the instructions provided with your doll.
Our silicone is an extremely durable material that resists deformation and temperature variations. With proper care and handling, a 4Woods Europe doll can last for many years without any loss of quality. The actual lifespan depends primarily on how gently and regularly she is maintained.
No. The silicone we use is designed to remain flexible while maintaining its original shape. However, avoid leaving your doll for long periods on uneven or textured surfaces (such as wicker or patterned chairs), which could cause slight marks or deformations over time.
You can safely immerse the body in water, but do not submerge the head. Each head is removable and has an opening at the back of the skull, which could allow water to enter. We recommend using a shower or gentle sponge bath instead.
Yes, our silicone is UV-resistant. However, prolonged exposure to strong sunlight may slightly alter pigmentation over time, so moderate exposure is preferable.
Yes. Our silicone is resistant to cold temperatures, although it becomes slightly firmer when chilled. Let the doll return to room temperature naturally before handling her again, to allow the silicone to regain its full flexibility.
Our silicone requires no special maintenance. To clean your doll, use warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and let her dry naturally or with a soft towel. Avoid aggressive cleaning agents or alcohol-based products.
Yes. Our dolls are delivered with permanent professional makeup, but you can safely add your own such as lipstick, blush, or mascara. Avoid glossy lipsticks, as they may smear on silicone. If you intend to apply makeup frequently, let us know, we can use a lighter permanent base to suit your needs.
Perfume compositions often contain alcohol, which can affect the silicone’s surface or shine. If you wish to apply perfume, do so only on hidden areas (under the hair, behind the ears, under clothing) or directly on the clothes themselves.
Yes. Wigs, whether synthetic or natural, require gentle care, as they are not protected by natural scalp oils. Wash the wig in mild soapy water without rubbing, and never comb it while wet. Once dry, detangle it starting from the ends and working up toward the roots.
Yes, but dressing a silicone doll requires patience and practice. You’ll quickly get used to the joint movement. Avoid tight, non-stretch fabrics or clothes without laces or zippers, which could cause friction on the silicone.
Yes. Avoid prolonged contact with real leather or dark clothing of poor quality, as they may transfer dye onto the silicone. We recommend washing dark garments several times before use and putting socks on the doll’s feet before wearing leather shoes.
It depends on the quality of the fabric. Low-quality textiles, especially dark or black ones, often release excess dye that can permanently stain silicone. Always wash new clothes before dressing your doll to remove any surplus color.
Yes. You can pierce the silicone in common areas (ears, nostrils, lips, navel, or intimate zones). Gently pinch a small portion of silicone between your fingers while piercing, and avoid pulling on the jewelry afterward.
Yes, the eyes are not fixed. You can gently adjust their orientation with your fingertip for more expressive poses.
All available customization options (skin tones, makeup, eyes, wigs, freckles, tattoos, and more) are presented on our Options page.
Yes, your doll can be positioned to appear standing. To do so, support her buttocks on the edge of a stable surface (such as a table or high chair) with her legs fully extended. This support helps balance her weight, allowing her to hold the position. Ensure that her feet are flat on a non-slip surface or wearing flat, stable shoes.
No. Fingernails are painted with polish that can easily be removed using a soft cotton pad and an acetone-free solvent. You can change the nail color as often as you like.
Each hair is individually implanted into the silicone using a fine needle. You can choose the shape and color from our customization options. The hair remains securely in place over time but can be removed if desired without damaging the silicone surface.
The Functional Fingers option allows the doll to gently hold lightweight objects, such as a glass or a book. It adds more natural and expressive hand postures, making it ideal for photography. Without this option, the hand includes a structured palm, but the fingers themselves are silicone only.
The Soft Face option provides an even softer silicone texture for the face, particularly the forehead, cheeks, lips, and chin, offering a remarkably delicate touch. It enhances the sense of realism during visual or tactile interaction. Without it, your doll’s face remains soft, similar to the rest of the body.
No. The Soft Face silicone is extremely soft and suitable only for the head, which has no movement joints. If used for the entire body, it would make handling and dressing the doll difficult and could damage the surface. The bodies of our dolls are already very supple, perfectly balanced between softness and durability.
Yes. The Toenails option can be added if you wish.
Only the big toe is separated, which allows your doll to wear flip-flops. The other four toes are joined together to prevent damage or tearing. This also makes dressing and fitting shoes much easier.
We will do our best to accommodate your request. Send us reference photos, and we will confirm feasibility and pricing.
No. The foot includes a full internal structure, but the toes themselves remain soft. This ensures both realism and ease when putting on shoes.
The hair is not permanent, each doll comes with a removable wig, which can easily be changed. You can choose the style and color you prefer, and order additional wigs for variety.
Yes. Each wig has adjustable elastic bands at the back to ensure a secure fit, whatever the doll’s position.
Yes, it’s simple. You can gently replace the eyes — just take care not to damage the eyelashes. Additional pairs of eyes are available upon request.
Of course. Send us your reference photo, and we will reproduce the same color and density.
Yes, with pleasure. You can send us your reference pictures (eyes, lips, cheeks), and we’ll confirm the details together before production.
Yes. Send us clear photos of the design, color, and desired location, and we will reproduce it faithfully. We will then provide a quote before confirmation.
For any other question, our team will be happy to assist you personally.
