Question 4

1. What materials do you use for Eve Studio Dolls, and will the BJD cats yellow over time?

Accepted Answer

Unlike traditional BJD studios, we do not use polyurethane resin. Instead, Eve Studio Dolls crafts premium ball-jointed cat dolls using advanced professional-grade photopolymers and high-grade polyamide nylon. Our polyamide offers indestructible strength, while our premium photopolymer resin allows us to achieve flawless anatomical details and smooth custom skin tones for breeds like the Sphynx BJD cat. These modern materials do not develop the unpleasant, greenish-yellow tint common to polyurethane. Over the past 10 years, our studio's historical models show that only pure white colors might slightly shift into a soft, beautiful ivory tone over time. To preserve their original look, simply keep your poseable companions away from prolonged, direct sunlight.

Question 5

2. How is the joint system designed, and what poses can the cats hold?

Accepted Answer

Our BJD cats feature a custom-engineered joint system, specifically adapted to the unique anatomy of the feline body. Meticulous ZBrush sculpting allows us to achieve jewelry-like precision, ensuring rock-solid, stable poses even for demanding doll photography. Professionally strung with heavy-duty, high-tension elastic cord, Eve Studio Dolls companions smoothly mimic the natural movements of real cats. This specialized ball-jointed cat doll mechanics allows them to arch their backs, sit elegantly, lie down, and stretch perfectly without any joint slipping or snapping back.

Question 6

3. Can I safely clean and wash my poseable BJD cat art doll companion, and will the blushing rub off?

Accepted Answer

Yes, all components engineered by Eve Studio Dolls are fully water-resistant. Our advanced material technologies—acid etching for polyamide nylon and in-mass tinting for photopolymer resin—ensure that the base body colors are completely permanent and will never chip or wear off at the high-friction joint connections during intensive posing. For surface cleaning, you can safely wash your articulated BJD pet with warm water and mild soap using a soft foam sponge. However, because detailed markings like realistic stripes, spots, or artistic faceups are applied via delicate hand-painted acrylics and airbrushing, we strongly advise gentle care and avoiding harsh scrubbing on those painted areas to preserve your collectible companion's custom look flawlessly.

Question 7

4. How do you protect against recasts, and how can I verify an original BJD cat doll's authenticity?

Accepted Answer

Doll counterfeiting and illegal recasting are serious issues in the BJD community. However, Eve Studio Dolls utilizes highly complex, proprietary 3D printing and production technologies, making our intricate internal engineering and fine joint tolerances nearly impossible to copy accurately. Furthermore, every original ball-jointed cat doll shipped from our Prague studio is accompanied by an official Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artist, Olga Bekreeva (OLEUM). This document features a unique production date and an individual doll ID number. If you are purchasing an Eve Studio cat on the secondary market, always verify that this certificate is included. We maintain a complete historical database, so you can contact us anytime to cross-reference the unique ID and confirm your collectible companion's absolute authenticity.

Question 8

5. Do your BJD cats use standard doll eyes, and are they exchangeable?

Accepted Answer

No, standard human-type BJD doll eyes do not fit the unique anatomy of a feline eye, as cats require a much larger iris and a completely different pupil shape. At Eve Studio Dolls, we craft unique, handmade custom BJD eyes developed specifically for each model to ensure a flawless fit and a realistic, mesmerizing gaze. Both our finished fullset BJD cats and blank BJD kits come with pre-made eyes included. For our photopolymer resin cats, we permanently mount the eyes and seal them with premium epoxy resin to create an incredibly lifelike gloss. For our larger ball-jointed cat models, we recommend keeping the eyes exchangeable and ordering additional custom sets with different colors and pupil shapes to beautifully expand your companion’s expressions.

Question 9

6. Do you ship worldwide, and how are the dolls protected against transit damage or loss?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we provide reliable BJD worldwide shipping for every original ball-jointed cat doll crafted in our Prague studio. We utilize registered international airmail, which has proven to be exceptionally safe and dependable over more than a decade of operations. Eve Studio Dolls officially assumes all transit risks. In the extremely rare event that a package is lost by the postal services, we will craft and ship a replacement doll entirely at our own expense.  We also place premium focus on custom, shockproof BJD doll packaging to ensure your companion arrives in pristine condition. Shipping damage is highly uncommon, but if any component is damaged during transit, our studio will repair or replace it at no additional cost to you. Your peace of mind and our reputation as a trusted artist are our highest priorities.

Question 10

7. What is the estimated production time for an Eve Studio Dolls BJD cat, and can I track my order status?

Accepted Answer

Generally, our estimated BJD doll production time starts from 4 months. Each original ball-jointed cat doll requires a highly intricate, multi-stage artisan process: customizing the digital model, high-precision 3D printing (which involves accumulating a minimum batch for industrial polyamide in Germany or meticulously testing premium custom skin tones for photopolymer resin), strict quality control, and extensive, painstaking hand-finishing. To guarantee flawless artistic quality, we operate without rigid deadlines, as rushing can compromise the final premium result. While we occasionally extend the timeframe slightly to perfect your custom companion, you are always welcome to contact us anytime to check your order processing status. This thorough approach is also why we offer flexible layaway payment plans—it allows us to craft each piece at a steady, focused pace. Please note that simpler models, such as our Budget Line BJD cats, bypass several complex customization steps and are usually completed much faster within a few weeks.
