This antique leather body had only the bottom remnants of a bisque head remaining. I loosened up the leather on the body to remove the head from the shoulder plate as it had very jagged edges. The body is in excellent condition with bisque hands. I did not glue the leather down as whomever purchases it would likely want to get under the shoulder plate to put another head on the body. It came with this older fashion type outfit of silk and a ribbed satin-type fabric. It is definitely vintage, but I am unsure of the age. It consists of a skirt, bodice jacket, gold silk dickie for under jacket and cape. There is a little damage as you can see in the pictures: some wear at bottom of gold silk in front, a seam opening on the front of the jacket and the dickie has some wear. The skirt is shorter in the front with a longer back with bustle.

The body measures approximately 12 3/4" tall with an opening for a head that is approximately 1 1/4" across the circular opening. Would likely make a doll of 15" or so when the head is put on. The outfit fits this body so I am sure it was made for it.

Please review all pictures carefully. Would be a really nice presentation when a head is on it :).
