Here we have a striking china head child or Kinderkopf, featuring a short black-painted and molded hairstyle with wispy brushstrokes around the face and framed by a straw bonnet adorned with metallic trim, ribbons and feathers.
Further details include wide set cornflower blue eyes, petal pink cheeks and full lips tinted a subtle mauve hue.
On a firmly stuffed cotton body with kid leather arms (hands presents wear / discoloration), she wears an incredible regional costume comprised of a black wool skirt and dirndl style bodice lavished with a gold thread stomacher and chain laces, a green silk apron (tender) and a black silk underskirt trimmed in vivid red. Her legs terminate in integrated, pointed brown leather shoes with silver buckles (left foot partially detached at ankle). She carries a basket in her right hand attached with a green silk ribbon.
Measures: 15 ¼” tall
