Her head, arms and lower legs are composition, and her body is cloth (darkened with age). She is clearly marked on the back of her neck, "A HORSMAN DOLL".
Her darling dress is sheer with tiny embroidered flowers of green and pinks, with pink trim on her collar and puffed sleeves. There are a couple places on sleeves seams... that need resewn. The skirt is pleated and has an attached slip. She has a matching darling bonnet with the same materials and pattern. It is trimmed with pink lace and has pink ribbon ties. She has pink panties, which have stretched elastic, and wears pink socks/satiny shoes combination that tie in front.
Her condition is played with and typical for this era and maker. Please look at my pictures, as composition is not perfect and the pictures are part of my description. There are not any big problems, such as cracks, bubbling, peeling, or bad crazing of the composition. It is in good condition for this era.
She has open/close blue eyes and hair lashes, that have a missing section on the right eye. She has an open/closed red mouth that evidently original child pretended that she could eat, as the red paint is worn in the very center.
Her blond mohair wig is very clean, full, and beautiful. The wig alone is worth what I am asking for her, in my opinion.
A darling doll. She is from smoke free homes. Feel free to email me if you have questions. I am selling my composition dolls only domestically and as is.Thank you.
