Imagine a place of stunning beauty and make-believe, where your dreams come to life and play is actively encouraged. This place is called Malaville. Not quite a physical destination, but rather a doll collection that aims to inspire young and old to journey into the world of the creative imagination. The Malaville Debut Collection is a range of dolls with a variety of brown skin tones and hair curls, coils and textures, introducing a more diverse representation to the doll market.
Malaville Toys was founded by international model, businesswoman and doll collector, Mala Bryan, because she had identified the need for more-curly haired black and brown dolls at an affordable price. “I looked to expand my own doll collection as they all started looking the same to me, but realzed they are not as easy to come by,” says Bryan. “We live in a world where diversity in culture, race and colour is celebrated, so why not translate that to children through playtime from an early age?”
The way children engage with their toys is a good reflection of how they will interact with their friends in the real world. Bryan feels strongly that kids relate to their dolls and therefore showcasing diverse ethnicity through toys will not only help children form a well-rounded and realistic worldview, but will also serve to develop a healthier self-image overall.
Bryan’s range of dolls was inspired by her own playful nature and the debut collection has just launched with four dolls of varied brown hues, each with their own career and natural beauty. Bryan felt the need to introduce careers in the creative fields as most of the dolls out there tend to gear towards conventional job titles such as doctors and vets. The Malaville dolls also embrace a more natural look, with little to no make-up, to move away from the world’s skewed and unrealistic portrayal of beauty.
Having gained significant traction and attention from around the globe, including international publications such as The Huffington Post, we can now welcome Maisha, Mala, Malina and Mhina to South African shores. The four dolls in the range each sport individual outfits that match their personality and respective creative career.
Bryan’s aim is for the dolls to have an impact on the citizens of the world and for the debut collection to make it into all doll collections, both young and old. “I would love for adults to play with the dolls and connect with their inner child,” Bryan concludes.
Exciting projects and additional dolls are in the pipeline, with an accessories line soon to be available online. The Malaville dolls can be purchased online from www.malavilletoys.com.

Those dolls are super cute. What little girl wouldn’t love to play with those?
These dolls are beautiful! My daughter loves all types of dolls and I’m sure she would love to have these as well!
I think that is just so awesome! I have never understood how the world can be full of so many different looking people, but dolls are always white.
Those are some really cute dolls. I love the hairdo’s on them as well. I’m sure my grand daughters would love these.
OH wow those are awesome! I know a few girls on this side of the world that would love those dolls too!
These new dolls are adorable! It will be nice to see the new accessory line once it’s released.
These dolls look very realistic. I hope your kids enjoy playing with them.
I think that is just so beautiful! I have never understood why they only used to offer white dolls! So glad this is changing!
Such pretty dolls! My niece was just asking me for a birthday gift. 🙂 I think she’ll love any of those.
Those dolls are beautiful. My girls would love to have them. We just got a Barbie dreamhouse, so these would go great with it.
Those are beautiful! I love the hair especialy. Ity’s nice to see these in the market now.
YASSS!!!! These dolls are fierce! When I was little there was just Barbie, and there were no faces close to mine on TV either. The closest doll to ‘brown’ I remember was the Cher doll who had an afro wig you could put on her and the doll was way more tan than she was for some reason! Thanks for sharing, I will definitely consider the Malaville Doll Collection for gifting for birthdays and holidays!

Copper billet production Copper has been used by humans for thousands of years. Its use can be traced back to the late 4th millennium BCE in the Middle East. Copper was first used by ancient societies as a substitute for stone or bone tools. Its availability, ease of use, and malleability made it a desirable material for crafting various objects. The Bronze Age, which lasted from around 3200 BCE to 600 BCE, saw an increase in the use of copper. It was used in the production of bronze, a mixture of copper and tin, which was stronger and more durable than copper alone. This led to a significant increase in trade and commerce, as bronze was used for tools, weapons, and even currency. Copper mining and production evolved over time, with new techniques and technologies being developed. The invention of the blast furnace in the 13th century allowed for the production of large quantities of copper, which was essential for the development of the Renaissance and Industrial Revolution. Copper played a vital role in the development of many societies, including the ancient Greeks and Romans. The Romans especially made significant advancements in the production and use of copper, with copper mining operations established throughout their empire. Today, copper continues to be an essential material, used in everything from electrical wiring to plumbing and construction. Its malleability, conductivity, and corrosion resistance make it a versatile material for a wide range of applications Metal recovery services Scrap Copper sorting Scrap Copper wire stripping machine Copper scrap volume forecasting Copper scrap compacting Scrap metal storage
Copper scrap recycling process Copper has been a valuable resource for humanity throughout history. Its uses date back to ancient times, where it was used by the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans for a variety of purposes. In ancient Egypt, copper was an important metal for jewellery making, as well as for tools and weapons. The Egyptians also believed that copper had healing properties, and it was frequently used in medicine. The Greeks also used copper for a variety of purposes, including armour, coins, and decorative objects. In fact, the Greek word for copper, “chalkos”, is also the root of the word for bronze. The Romans, who were skilled metalworkers, used copper extensively in their architecture, from roofing to plumbing. They also used it in their weapons, including the famous gladius sword. And, like the Egyptians, they believed in the healing properties of copper and used it in medicine. During the Middle Ages, copper continued to be an important metal for a variety of uses. It was used in the creation of stained glass windows and for the production of illuminated manuscripts. It was also used in the creation of bells and other decorative objects. Copper was also important during this time period for its use in medicine. Physicians believed that copper could cure a variety of illnesses, from headaches to stomachaches. They also used copper to treat wounds and infections. Today, copper remains an important metal for a variety of industries, including construction, electronics, and transportation. Its unique properties, including its conductivity and durability, make it indispensable for many modern applications Scrap metal reclaim Scrap Copper prices Scrap copper market trends Exporting Copper scrap Copper recycling process Scrap metal reutilization and recycling
