Here we have a showstopper in the form of an early bisque head child attributed to Kestner. This captivating and substantially sized child features a perfect shoulderhead with crisp molding and fine painting including full, deeply blushed cheeks, closed shell pink lips, inset blue glass eyes framed by fine, arched brows and exposed ears. Further details include a head of molded and painted hair that is swept up into abundant and beautifully detailed curls and painted in a classic pale, yellow-blonde hue.
On a cotton body with stitched, mitt style leather hands, a dress of fine cotton featuring bertha style shoulders and lace details is worn. This early child wears antique underthings including a chemise, pantalettes and a slip trimmed in lavish eyelet lace are worn, while white cotton stockings and brown leather boots complete the charming presentation.
Measures: 23” tall
