SOLD Rare c1840 China Head Doll BROWN Hair Pink Tint Tiny Size

Dolls : Antique : China Head

 

Rare Brown hair china, 6-1/2" tall, pink tinted complexion, deeply sloping shoulders with sew holes.

Remarkably beautiful facial painting, especially in such a tiny doll.

She came to me on the home made body you see in the first photo with leather upper arms and wooden lower limbs. Quite crudely made.

I am including a factory body shown in the second full shot, which has unglazed porcelain lower limbs and still has the legs stitched together as it came from the factory.

Included is the clothing from the doll as it came to me, along with the slip that was on the replacement body.

Please email with any questions and note that close-ups are extreme enlargements. The head measures only 1-3/4" from top of head to base of shoulder plate. All white spots on the hair and face are reflections and not wear. The final photo close-up shows specks on the hair, but that was lint that was not noticeable until the enlargements were processed.

Absolutely no chips, cracks, or other damage to the china head and such a fabulous find.
