Upfor your consideration a magnificent antique victorian extralarge 34 inch bisque head doll body with original period clothes .Unfortunately she lost her head at some point , still has intactshoulder head socket .Maker unknown no makers marks on body possiblyfrench ? Recently acquired from a lifetime doll collectors estate.She is 34 inches tall -measures 8 1/2 wide shoulder to shoulder -and the bisque plate is 6 1/2 wide with a 2 ¼ wide head socket. I believe shewould have had a 6-8 ...inch tall head originally bring her to 40+inches tall !!! .She has a sawdust stuffed cloth body - bisqueshoulder socket and sewn on fine leather evening gloves .She iscurrently wearing a stunning original victorian period lacy silkdress with matching petticoat -period undergarments and originalvictorian button down leather shoes as well ! Quite Stunning ! Idon't have a doll stand so the pictures don't really show the fullaffects of the long flowing dress. She comes with a nice wig and hardscull cap with her when purchased . She has a small tear leak on oneof her folding knees , very little loss as body is still very firm inarea of leak. Very easily correctable. Nothing wrong with upper bodythe wrapping shown is pinned on , I believe it was to hold stuffingfor breast .In extremely good as shown condition otherwise for a 100+year old doll .Easily fully restored with new head or great halloweendisplay :-) This was part of a large very lovingly cared forcollection that I purchased several other dolls from that I amlisting this week.Greatfresh recent fine estate find
