This lovely old gal was found sitting in a chair in the bedroom of a house that was built in 1850. She had always lived in that house and was passed down through the generations of women until her last owner passed away. I have been asked to sell her by the person who inherited it.
Her condition is as follows. Her plate has no cracks and her face is flawless. There are some chips in the black ribbon headpiece and the only other damage is on the bow at the blouse front wh...ere the two ends have broken off. The hair has wonderful deep modeling and the snood is in good condition. The color of the hair is unusual for this doll. There are some very subtle brush marks at the temples.
Her cloth body is original and in good condition, although since the slip was stitched on the body I was not willing to remove it to take pictures. One of the leather arms has been taped and her hands have no fingers. Please review all the pictures and I encourage you to enlarge them to get an idea of the general condition.She wears her original pantaloons and stockings and has the most wonderful shoes that have never been taken off, amazingly...She came wearing her original cotton striped dress which is very faded on the front where the apron didn't protect it. The silk two piece dress has some age related damage. The jacket has a lot of mends and patches where the silk shattered and the skirt was made of antique black embroidered silk. All in all this doll is a beautiful time capsule which deserves consideration. She has not been offered for sale before now and has never been shipped.
She is sold as is so I encourage you to ask questions. International shipping via Ebay Global Shipping. I ship free to the Global Shipping Center and you will be billed by ebay for the cost to ship to your country. Thank you for viewing this listing.
