This is a fabulous doll head withshoulders and four sew holes. Her face is so beautiful, 5-3/8” (13.7cm) talland 4-5/16” (11cm) at shoulder width. Beautifully painted blue eyes with red eyeliner, rosy red cheeks, lovely formed lips and even soft colored nostrils. Her black wavy hair has brush strokedbangs, such a sweet look. There is some paint rubs at top front and back of thehea...d. Top of the head white is only window glare. The black hair is arranged in many deep molded curls on sides and theback, and the brush stroked bangs is the hairstyle referred to as ‘HighlandMary’. I thought her free of damage until Itook photos and there is a faint line running from front right shoulder sewhole. Only on the top it does not show inside, so possibly just in the glaze.She is marked with impressed numbers 1000?? best I can decipher, on the backbase. I was told this numbering datesher from late 1890 to early 1900’s. Truly a lovely vintage piece.
