They always look sweet when they are sleeping and this charming hand made picture is no exception! Satin material wasused for the sheets and pajamas with pink embroidery and ribbon trimming the edges. The face and hands were cut from paper and it does appear that real human hair was used for the babe’s curly locks. The swirling detail of the engraving on the frame echoes the art nouveau style of the period. Absolutely charming for a nursery, craft or doll room or collector of ribbon art.

Condition: This picture displays beautifully having no scratches or flaws to the glass. There is some subtle discoloration around the edges of the satin from the glue aging behind it but nothing that seems inappropriate for its age. The frame is in solid condition with slight chipping to the edges. The silver color has worn off in some areas exposing the reddish colored wood underneath. I find the worn frame charming but if you would like it perfect or in prefer it in another color it can quickly be painted on and then slightly rubbed off to expose the engraved pattern in the wood.
