Antique 16 " Bisque Head Kestner 226 Character Baby Doll W Brown Eyes, Mohair Wig
Item History & Price
This beautiful Antique BISQUE KESTNER CHARACTER BABY DOLL is model 226 and is marked "GERMANY J.D.K. 226".
The doll has a lovely bisque head and composition body, with bent baby legs and chubby tummy. The head looks to be in very good condition and her chubby cheeks are adorable. The brown fixed eyes are so pretty, and she has an open mouth with two tiny teeth showing. The lashes and brows are painted. I see no cracks or chips to the head. The mohair wig is original, and... a nice dark auburn brown color. The eyes sleep smoothly and she has her original lid paint and wax. The composition body has no major issues, no rubs and scratches to the paint to be expected for a 90+ year old doll. It is strung well, and displays nicely. The fingers and toes have no obvious flaws.
The antique baby dress has an embroidered top and button back. Underneath that delightful dress is an antique slip with lace inserts. Under the slip is one piece diaper with buttons at the crotch and waist. The lacy bonnet is really unique and accents her hair. This doll has no odors and comes from a smoke free environment. Shipping on this doll will be a flat rate of $15 to her new home. Happy collecting!
