Item Details
I’m pleased to offer one of a pair of the small Norwegian cloth dolls from Ronnaug Petterssen. From the 1930’s through the 1960’s, Mrs. Petterssen produced beautiful cloth dolls, taking great pains to detail her doll costumes to authentically represent the traditional folk bunads of the different regions of Norway. These dolls are especially charming at Christmas time, when they can be displayed dancing around a small Christmas tree. (See last photo).
This little Petterssen boy likely dates from the 1940’s or 1950’s. He is 7 ½” tall. Like most of the Petterssen dolls, he is made of cloth with posable arms and legs. He has a pressed felt face with hand painted features including blue right side glancing eyes. (With their opposing side glancing eyes, the two Setesdal dolls can sneak peeks at each other!) His wig is pale yellow mohair, covered with a black felt top hat. He wears the traditional bunad of Setesdal. It includes a a white felt long sleeve shirt with a bead decorated collar, an elaborately embroidered green vest with red suspenders, black felt pants with embroidered green felt cuffs and a brown felt crotch and seat patch. Underneath, he wears red felt stockingsand black felt shoes.
This doll is in very good condition with some moth damage to his seat patch. He is missing his Petterssen gold and blue foil tag. Please examine the photos and feel free to email me if you have any questions.
While you are here, do enjoy the other dolls I have for sale at this time. Thank you for visiting my shop today.
