Antique Paper Dolls with Elaborate Handmade Tissue and Dresden Paper Lace Clothing

For the Antique paper doll collector, I offer this wonderful set to enhance your collection. To begin, I offer the paper dolls themselves that contain 3 Victorian era dolls and 1 doll that appears to be somewhat newer.  They are about  4 1/2 to 5" tall and also included is a very lovely cut out head of a lady with red highlights. She is not a paper doll but rather a cutout that was with the lot when I found it. There are several dresses and uniforms that were made of lovely printed paper to fit the dolls and probably came with the dolls originally. This includes a pink gown where a kitten is held in the arms and 2 outfits that denote royalty for the boy(s) in the group. However, in my opinion, the unique and very special feature of this collection are the rare and very carefully designed fashions. You will love the way the maker handmade the majority of dresses, gowns, and handsome outfits using tissue paper. Though some wear is seen along edges, a simple nip with a scissors could eliminate those tiny rips if desired. Evidently, the original owner of these dolls wanted to give them a larger wardrobe, so, out came the tissue paper, a bit of paper to make backs for the outfits and even some thread to secure some of the creations. Then to enhance the designs, dresden type paper lace was added here and there... most impressive! So, you are getting 17 pieces in all and quite a unique  addition to your collection!!
