Head is beautifully modeled and decorated. The eyebrows are molded and glossy and are wispy and thick, painted in the French manner. Her big brown eyes are in the original sleep setting, eye cuts have individually painted lower lashes and accented corners. Remnants of the original hair lashes remain on top. Her nostrils are accented, as is her open mouth, and it has four teeth.

Her original composition ball jointed body has the original finish, though the left upper thigh appears to be a well-matched replacement. Body has the Kestner stamp marked in red which reads "Germany // 3".

She retains her original plaster pate and wig.

Her costume includes her dress, full slip, beautiful crocheted bonnet, socks, and likely original aqua shoes.

Condition: Excellent, no chips, cracks, or repairs. She does have a light nose rub which shows in our magnified close-up (which makes it appear worse than it is in person). There is some wear and chipping to the body as shown in our photos.

Lovely, large Kestner #171, larger than the Daisy model (18" tall) but every bit as lovely.
