    Description

    Winsome antique doll in beautiful shape for her age! Condition is "Used".
    It looks like a very high quality piece.
    This doll has been in our family since it was purchased for my grandmother sometime around the late 1890's by my great grandfather,  - an immigrant from Wales. She is 29 1/2" long.
    Her head and lower arms and hands (complete with dimples) are porcelain, the rest of the doll is covered with fine leather. The shoulders have round wooden ball joints. The knees appear to be hinged.
    The eyelashes are 'real' not painted on. (You might can see this in the third photo.)
    I believe that the hair is a replacement, and the eyes - although they are original - have been reset. They used to open and close and now they stay open.
    This was and is a non-smoking house.
    I am including  a photo of the symbol on the back of her head. I cannot make out who the manufacturer is, but someone who knows about antique dolls may be able to.
    Will be happy to answer any questions that I can and send additional photos.
    There are clothes as well. Some are definitely doll's clothes....very old, others may be baby clothes....also very old.
    Here's the list: 2 top undershirts, one 1/2 slip, one full slip, white dress in photo, white dotted swiss dress, white pinafore, white skirt,
    pink dress, *pale pink dress, *blue summer shift and *white short dress. (The ones with stars may be baby dresses. Many have smocking and ruffles and lace.)
