Item History & Price
DESCRIPTION:This listing is for a a "beautiful" antique German bisque head doll with an extra dress. Incised on the back of her bisque head is "Germany, Simon & Halbig" with 3-1/2 below the neck. Reference attributes to German maker 1890+ Simon & Halbig, Simon & Halbig are know for their high quality bisque heads. This doll measures 23" tall being a bisque socket head on nicely strung, composition wood doll body. Body shows some overall wear and a few scuffs for being... 100 or so years old but intact. Doll is jointed at the neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, legs and knees with fingers intact. Nails accented with red lines for that realistic look. This doll has a "Gorgeous" and "Expressive" face with open and close blue glass sleepy eyes that work fine, painted black lashes around the eyes, molded painted brush stroked auburn brown eye brows, beautiful coloring on her face, she has open mouth with upper teeth intact, there is a faint little dimple in her chin. I flashed inside her bisque head and do not see any cracks or hairlines, a good bisque. There is a "W" incised on her upper forehead. Her auburn brown mohair wig needs a little "TLC" and styling, I did not comb it, left it as it is. Her wig slips over a pate on her head. This doll comes with two dresses, a short dress with daisy embroidery on the front, and a longer stripe dress. I will include them both with her and have shown both in my photos, (photos 1, 2 & 3), possibly one dress may be original to this doll, I don't know, the short dress has a few snags, small rips and shows overall wear. Her antique stripe dress has hooks down the back, it shows overall wear but is charming, there is a slip and a one piece pink undies. The one piece undies was in a small bag with the shorter pink dress along with a white bonnet. Doll wears stockings and shoes. I have taken plenty of photos.
