We are pleased to offer a charming German papier-mâché girl with the desirable feature of glass eyes. Further details include a nicely molded face with full cheeks, petal pink tinting between her closed lips and exposed ears. Her black-painted hair is nicely molded in a classic center-part style with a row of neat sausage curls (shoulderhead presents scattered surface wear throughout and area of flaking to right front of hair).
On a firmly stuffed cloth body with oil painted cloth lower arms featuring hands with stitched fingers and legs with hinge sewn knees and upper thighs, she wears a fabulous, early dress in a pattern of brown calico dots and stripes in an ikat pattern of vivid blue (scattered tender areas throughout dress, particularly to top, right side of skirt). A cotton chemise in eyelet lace, pantalettes and a wool slip are worn and early, red leather slipper style shoes complete her presentation.
Measures: 28” tall
